Just wait until you get into the wet threads / dry threads discussion with people after you have bought your Torque wrench. ( hint like a small oil thread)

I know this is an old post, but just to throw a monkey wrench in to the works, you do know there are torque wrenches calibrated in a) FOOT pounds, and b) INCH pounds, right? I learned this when doing the clutch on my Sportster. Oh, and my Model T Ford friends (the really OLD ones) tell me a Monkey wrench is the smaller version of a Gorilla wrench. I'll let you work on that for awhile.
