Torque to yield tightening tool? Air, electric?

[zkdiesel]

Anybody have any expierience with these air, electric or hydraulic torque tools
Getting really sick of pulling on head bolts everyday, and would like to maybe consider purchasing one. Don't know how much cash, or where to find them. Looking for the tool that rebuilders and assemblers use in the plants pretty much, heck I don't even know the technical name of this tool, but I know they exsist and seen them used
Most times I have the space to use the large apperatice. Using my torque multiplier and rigging holders works, but think this would be much better option
Thanks

Any good retailers on estimated cost on a jgun1 with regulator setup?

I use them at work from time to time. I would guess that they are hugely expensive. Hytorc requires a power unit as well that would add to the cost.

We use them at work to tighten main caps and cylinder heads to retarded torque specs. With that said, they have a retarded price tag. Over $10,000 easily. I am talking for these large tools that we use. Smaller ones would be less, but still $$$$$$

Is it similar to an electric impact but tightens to specific torque values?

RadGun Air powered torque multiplier basically. Could use a hytorc as well. Either way even used on ebay they go from couple thousand and up.

Willing to spend 2k on one no problem with me. Would like it to do up to 1000 lbs
All used ones I see don't have there regulator kit, can I make my own regulator, filter, oiler for it I assume for a few hundred
The jgun from hytorc uses regular shop air
