RE: recommended in/lbs. torque wrench
You can always use a postal or fisherman's scale
with any wrench handle to set torques.
I have 30 year old Craftsman torque wrenches that are still in calibration.
My brother swears by Snap-On

most of the dodge specs that are in inch lbs are divisible by 12....so just divide it by 12 and set your ft lb wrench to that spec. (intake manifold...144 inch lbs=12 ft lbs.)

Well now...
The Craftsman is on sale for 37.49 thru tonight,
The harbor freight I can get a3/8",0 to 80 ft/lbs for 19.99 anytime. Since I've got to order the plenum kit from Hughes, might as well get the harbor freight and save the money.
Thanks guys!
