[Verdoro 68]

While I wait for my rotating assembly to arrive and machine work to be completed, I've started shopping for the tools I'll need to put this thing together. What are some cost effective, yet quality, options for guys like me who don't build engines every day?

On my shopping list:
- 2-3" and 3"-4" micrometers
- Dial bore indicator (.0001 graduations?)
- Piston ring installation tool (any advantage to non-adjustable?)
- Piston ring compressor (not sure brand matters)
- Ring filer (Summit or Jegs seem ok here?)

I have a Kobalt clicker-type torque wrench that's about 10 years old and seen light use. Not sure if it's worth upgrading or if I should just have it calibrated.

I know pros love Starrett and Mitutoyo for measurement tools but they are pricey. I've been looking at Fowler as a compromise. Are Harbor Freight mics a no-no? What about Summit brand?
