Hi guys.

I'm the one who makes the tool that has been pictured/mentioned here.

You can get them from this link- I have about 30 left in this run. I am not sure if I will make more, it depends on demand.

Porsche Valve Adjusting Screwdriver

It is a simple design, and I encourage you to hack or build your own if you'd rather. The ide was not mine, but links to the original idea are on my site. I did these on a precision mill so the 36 Deg. angle is exact.

I ordered one last week

seems that once i get the feel of the routine it'll be quick, accurate, and eliminate feeler gauge bs

The last time I did my own valve adjustment - about a year ago - I discovered your tool the weekend before I had planned to do the adjustment. I didn't want to postpone it, so I "hacked" my own. I used 2" nails, a shorty screwdriver, an angle finder and some JB Weld. I would give myself a C+ grad, I was pretty close to 36 degrees.

It was soooo much easier to do the adjustment, took sooo much less time and had such better results than all previous attempts. It convinced me to buy your tool, knowing it is exact. I am completely confident that I can perform valve adjustments quickly and accurately.
