Torque wrench

Hello,
I have just finished removing both valve covers on my 99 maxima and am ready to reinstall the new gaskets/valves. I understand that I must torque the valve bolts to a specific setting. My question is where is the most affordable place to get a torque wrench that's small enough to maneuver within the space provided. I have a 2 ft torque wrench at present but its not suitable for this job. Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Craig
