This Tooltopia is on the ball, I ordered these wrenches on the 28th and they were waitin for me when I got home this evening on the 1st. I also hunted all over the net and they were the cheapest price also, so ya can't ask for better then that.

Thee things are cool, come in there own carry cases also.

Thanks to all of ya here.

Just an update on this. These torque wrenches are worth every penny of HIS money! They are far easier to work with then the typical torque wrench, and having to not worry about rolling them back after every use is a dream.... even though it is still a habit to do. They also only ratchet one way, which keeps you from being tempted to use them as a ratchet/long handled breaker bar like I've seen friends do with their own.

As far as electric torque wrenches go, I am not a fan of there reliability, sensitivity to bumping, and constantly having to feed them AA batteries. I ended up trashing an LS1 cylinder head back when stock heads were 450+ because of an electronic Sears torque wrench.
