Save your money if you are only going to use it a few times. A good
feeler (thicknes) gauge will accomplish the same thing and through trial
and error you can measure the end play within .001". You can even get
fancy and get a go no go set.
Just completed my 70 TR6 engine and the method works fine.
I've been doing it this way for a number of years with great succes.
Good luck
