This tool is fast you can have your head swap done in minutes(leaving the manifolds attached), and there aren't any flying vice grips or bungie cords involved! No one likes those!

My guess is that you were also part in the "creation" of the magical tool.

As stated by many, this can save time but there are several other ways to do this without getting/making a tool which work just as well. This technique is not recommended for anyone who hasn't replaced their timing belt, tensioner, water pump, etc recently.
