That's the tool! Been using that on my ironhead for many years. The last thing you want to do is use a screwdriver. Dangerous and you can bust a cooling fin off like some idiot did on my bike many years ago.

Keep a close eye on those silicon seals. I tried them and they leaked pretty bad.

The trick is to make sure the top and bottom tubes are properly seated against the top and bottom seals before you try to wedge the clips in place.
