Yes they do, I bought one a couple of years back to do the head on my MR2 Turbo.

Sykes-Pickavant do suitable ones for 4 valve engines -- one I have for K16 engines fully universal more adjustable than the Clarke tool and cope with
valves that are very deeply recessed in the head.
To test for bent valves turn the head upside down, get it proped up level and fill the combustion chambers with parraffin.
To get badly bent valves out I find they need to be straightened a bit with a hammer or the valve spring compresor will tend to slip o the side.
