I am thinking of getting a butterfly impact wrench to speed the process
of removing the gearbox from my Healey.
I'm not sure what type of tool your referring to but for such tasks I use an
ait tool similar to a ratchet handle. You use it like a breaker bar to loosen
the bolt and then use the air to unscrew the bolt/nut. I bought mine at
Harbor Freight for under $20.oo and it works slowely but much faster than by
hand-especially when you can't get any swing on the bolt!!  Michael
