I have one of those. 3/8 drive. Works fine. Only issue is clearance if you are working on rear head with engine still in frame.
Also, I don't trust any torque wrench/adapter at either low or high end of their adjustable range. Don't know what you are working on. Save your 1/2" drive tools for 3/4" nuts and up

^^Thanks for input. I have a few t-wrenches, but have read the DTA could kind of be used to 'calibrate' them to see if they are off somewhat. That would be useful. Also for finding the torque of a nut I'm removing if I don't have a torque spec for it -bike, car or truck or even a lawnmower or snowblower etc.
One hack thing I have done, is jam nut a bolt in a vice with one tq wrench, and walk up to it with others. Doesn't guarantee anything, and bit of hack, but I think will give you rough idea.
