I have one, don`t know the make but came in the red case and has black plates. when I was looking for one, I checked out e-bay for quite a while getting a feel on what is out there, and price. seems they run around $200 with the shipping, maybe a little more now from a couple years ago.

I found a few that were used for a good price, and always got out bid.

started looking in Craigs List, and finally found one for $75, brand new, never used. guy bought it for his 124, and then sold the car.

I have used it maybe 4 times. once in PNP for a set of 240 springs.

As mentioned, you will have to enlarge the hole a bit. there are 2 pieces of sheet metal in the hole, and it is the inner piece that has to be filed back. then seal the bare metal with some POR.

Do not use an impact gun on the tool. crank down on the compressor with a hand ratchet.

These knock off`s of the Klann tool are all probably made in Taiwan. once in a while a Klann compressor will come up on E-bay or CL.
