One problem with the beam-type is that parallax can be a problem.
Depending on gradiation, you could be off by as much as 5 lb-ft in some cases...

This is why I asked what #'s were you shooting for.
If you're trying to shoot for 25 lb-ft, if we account for possible parallax error, it could be as low as 20 lb-ft...
20 lb-ft is a bit too low for most rebuilders.
