Default inch/lb torque wrench

Anyone have an inch/lb torque wrench that can tighten 44 and 88 inches? I just need it for a few hours and I can't find any places that sell them for under $160 or will let me rent them.

Willing to pay some money for the rental.

Any help greatly appreciated. I'm located in Deltona Florida.

Thanks in advance.

Discount and auto zone sells them for cheap... like under $30. I got one from there just for using in tight places on low torque. If you can't find one I will loan you mine for the costs of shipping. Send me a pm and let me know if you need help

Jason, if you are installing the intake, just tighten them down. They are rubber gaskets and will seal.

Let us know how the upcoming tune and dyno works out!
