in general snap-on is always way over-priced, the quality and warranties make up for it tho.

I would advise to properly torque the flywheel nut to 375lbs of torque. Only because I have heard some horror stories and personally seen one guy loose 3 fingers when the flywheel came flying out.
I own a snap on 3/4 drive torque wrench that goes up to 600 ft lb I paid 500.oo bucks for it. I own the smaller one too for oil pump bolts and timing cover bolts and oil pan bolts. Proper torque is part of the secret to a happy engine.
