    Tyson,

    Mandatory:
    THICK set of gloves
    Bigass Torque wrench, usually the same you torque caps and flywheel
    Anti Seize for cover nuts (and lever pins if so inclined)
    Alignment tool
    Stand adjusting tool, usually a cut-off screwdriver will work.

    Highly Recommended:
    Something/someone to cut/grind discs
    Something/someone to grind floaters
    Racks for hot discs and floaters
    Fan
    Flat Edge
    Gap tool made to the "0" height

    Jimbo Ermalovich showed me one time on a top fuel car that if your using an old punch to adjust your stands go take a torch to it to take the temper out of it. This will allow it to bend before it snaps and breaks off. Jimbo said it if you broke one off in a stand it would be a mother Fu**er to get out.

    We use old head studs that were machined down to a point. Works like a charm! Strong too....

    Alignment tool is an input shaft without a gear head or splining on the transmission side like the normal input shaft. You could use the input shaft in a pinch.. Don't hit the pedal without the input shaft or alignment tool in place. Creates a nice hassle usually involving a big hammer if you're in a hurry.

    And x2 what Doug said. The manufacturer would know.
