This is a question and a mild rant:
A local Snap-on rep told me yesterday that there is no life-time guarantee
on torque wrenches, particularly the part that sets and maintains specific
torque.  If used as a 2 way breaker bar - oh, yeah, that's guaranteed.
Now, that maybe so but it's funny nowadays since Canadian Tire gives
life-time guarantee on their torque wrenches (I asked specifically
yesterday) in full.  I also have a Husky piece, for which I was promissed
life-time guarantee - haven't tried it yet, it still works.  I haven't
heard from Snap-on yet, that's why I'd like to ask if anyone knows or has
used such guarantee from Snap-on or Husky.

TIA
Greetings,
Tihol

BTW, he wanted $125 CDN for repair and I left him the wrench, since I
didn't ask in advance about costs thinking it was covered for life.  A new
Canadian Tire one costs $92.

I would add one caveat. You can get too much fuel volume for your fuel
pressure regulator to handle at idle. Since the engine does not use much
fuel at idle most of what your pumps will be doing is recirculation the fuel
through the system and back to the tank. We ran into this on a 911 turbo
project car (428 hp on an engine dyno). MoTec fuel/ignition running 2 fuel
pumps to insure enough fuel under full load at high rpm. The fuel pressure
would creep up at idle causing and overly rich condition. We had to add a
second pressure regulator and return line to control it. Maybe we went a
little over board on fuel pump sizes but we never had a lack of fuel.

IME, the CIS3 pump is good to 400hp safely, I just replaced my 15 year old
CIS3 pump recently because I was getting some fuel cut out at 20psi and race
gas (350+hp I'd say no problem, considering I have about 300 at 15psi),
swapping in a S. African CIS truck (Eurovan) pump seemed to do the trick,
its the same diameter as the CIS3 pump, but 1" longer, a real hog, got it at
Eurospec a way back, no more cutting out.

Anyway, you can't go wrong with 2 pumps, maybe a little overkill for 350hp,
just keep an eye on your fuel pressure, if it drops at max power, you know
you need more pump.

Taken from the Snap-On Website FAQ, Canadian version:


"For SNAP-ON=AE brand torque wrenches and BLUE-POINT=AE brand meters and po=
wer
tools, and for all other SNAP-ON=AE brand and BLUE-POINT=AE products not
specifically mentioned above, the duration of the warranty period is
supplied with the product, but in no event is the warranty period for more
than one year from the date of the original purchase."

hth,
Robert
