Tim,

On or off the motor?  Off the motor there are a variety of tools available. 
Google "Valve Spring Compressor" and look at what Sears has for $19.99. 
Other, similar tools are available from any good auto parts store.

On the motor is a different matter.  You need to figure a way to keep the 
valves from falling into the motor when you remove the keepers.  There may 
be something on 311s.org, as the subject has been discussed on this List.
