What do you mean by angle functions! If you mean a ratcheting one norbar and snapon both make them and both quite good.
I have used a snap on model -1/2" drive, yeah it saved pissing around with an angle gauge , pretty handy I would readily use one if available but I wouldn't spend the $1000 for the one I used. In my opinion its something that has always been supplied by the workshops I've worked in. Also regardless of what tool I am using to tighten the bolts/nuts when torqueing a head or similar I mark them for reference anyway. That 3/8 model shown looks too small for torqueing diesel heads comfortably
I hate those bloody things. They can sometimes stop moving while you're tightening the bolt, and by then you have no idea how many degrees you moved.
