I bought a 10-100 lb 3/8" drive SK torque wrench at toolwareouse.net which I
find good for headbolts and most of the torquing on any car I won.
I also have a 1/2" torque wrench that goes up to 150# that I use for heavier
torquing such as crank pulley bolts.
I also have a 1/4" drive that uses inch#s.
Torque wrenches are generally not that accurate w/i 20% of their low end or
high end of the scale.
And remember to always zero out your wrench after use and don't drop it and
DON'T loosen anything with it.
