Joseph, i received my copy today just wanted to let you know that it's an excellent book, good job man

Just like Jason said, it's all very clear and a great addition to any mechanic's garage whether your an amateur or experienced tech everyone can learn something from it

Great book !

Specifically, what type of torque wrench is used throughout the torque sequences? It looks like a Snap-On Techwrench but I'd like to invest in the correct model number.

Thanks!

That one shown is the 3/8" 5-100lb ft Techwrench, think they are around $300, one of the most accurate Torque wrenches I've ever used. I have the 1/2" Snap-On Angle Techwrench also, a great (but expensive) addition to any LS engine builders tool box, that one you can torque to specified angles in addition to ft. lb ratings. I use both quite often.
