Bore Scope / Inspection Cameras - The Best?
2009 C2S 206K miles
What is your pick and why? Some on Amazon are as low as $20!!! Good? I dunno. What say you? Wayne? You had a good one eh?
BTW, I have purchased a Vevor vice and I am really impressed. I don't know who they are or where they came from (China no doubt), but they are making some good cheap stuff.
Peace

This is the one I picked up ...

The key is that it has three cameras. One faces forward, and then others to each side. It can take pictures as well. The side cameras are fairly wide angle to allow a glimpse of the valves.
In retrospect, having the camera attach to the display via a fairly rigid cable is a bit of a hassle. The same goes for transferring photos. If I but another I think I'd go with one that transmits to my phone.

As far as Vevor goes, I picked up a couple of tall jack stands to support the rear of the 997 once I get it in the air if I'm doing anything that requires tugging. Just for a bit of insurance. The quality was good (enough).

Of course, if you have a lift and are going to use these, first lower the lift to the mechanical safety stop before setting the jack on the chassis or suspension linkage.
