Default renting special tools for engine build?

is there such a service. read threads about it, but wonder where these special tool rental places are at. I've seen the web base tool seller sites, but some of these special tool prices makes having the steeler doing the work real attractive.


debating on doing a stage II vs stage I 103 upgrade. Not int in going higher.

Autozone has free loaner tools,basically you pay for them and they refund your $$$ when you return them.They have a good selection and if they dont have them they take them off the rack.....Just an FYI... Nice to know when you need a breaker bar and you lent yours to a buddy who just happens to be out of town :-(
I know you are talking specialty tools but good to know none the less.....
