Screwdrivers: 1. Snap-On. (High HRC hardness scale i've tested, 2nd only to Klein, but Klein has antique handles from the 1960s). 2. PB Swiss (High HRC, finely made tip) Sockets: 1. Koken (Sockets is their bread and butter. Sockets is all they make. Any size, type, length, or material you can...

Thats good info. Thanks Perry. I needed specific measured info like this which helps a lot.

Sorry if the picture doesn't show it but the safety wire we bought were the ones in the blue tub. They failed not once but multiple times on race day. Engine mount bolts and rear bumper guard which came loose. A simple test is to wiggle the wire back and forth to see how much it'll take to...

I would say more **** than there is gold at harbor freight.

Harbor freights safety wire and safety wire pliers failed. The safety wire pliers lock failed to lock together rendering tool useless after maybe a day of use. The cutting end didn't cut very well and overall construction was extremely poor. Harbor freights safety wire failed several times...

I guess more people are liking the Saylor Beall compressors according to the poll.

Any deficiencies you find with your clone? Is it just as good or maybe better? Worth the money or savings? i'm curious.

All scanners ****. There is no best at the moment. Where do i start. Starting from the least suckiest scanners would be OEM Dealer scanners but they only work on their brand of cars. Meaning Honda scanners only for hondas, bmws scanners only for bmws. 2nd least suckiest would be those J-boxes...

Thanks for the input C96. I've always wondered about that clone thing. The greatest form of flattery is being copied i guess. I've seen a few discussions about the saylor beall clones but i've never seen any clones of the quincy 325 as far as i know of. i could be wrong. Wonder if SB sold...

Whatever that would be equivalent that would be considered in the same competing class. Not sure what models would be thats what i was wondering.

Hey thanks for the input. Although the saylor beall 705 comes with PL, without looking at the valves in person and holding it, its hard to tell how big they are but from all the pictures and videos i've been looking at, the quincys valves do look bigger and more robust. Seems like there's more...

Could you elaborate on that? what is it that you think puts the 325 in another league?

wow A_Pmech, just looked at the toys in your garage. That is very impressive. Seems you like nice industrial big heavy duty machinery as well. Very nice setup there. I did try to look for your compressor setup but didn't see it. i assume from all your nice toys that the compressor is a nice one...

The devilbiss 432 is going to need a good rebuild which is going to cost me $600. I have a curtis c89 as well. I just figure for a little bit more money i'd try a saylor beall or a Quincy since i have never had one before, but just don't know which one. I like these bigger piston pumps that move...

Wow great info on the quincy. Learn something new everyday. Didn't know they can hold up to 500psi or fascinating finding out other applications they were used for such as oil rigs. I believe quincy and champions were mostly used for scuba tank compressor setups as well. I couldn't find anything...
