CncNutz,
I can say for sure, you are going to want to spend money on a very good manual quick-change toolpost. There is a 40 position toolpost made by Klopfer, and various clones of it out there, that is excellent for repeatability. Lots of shops use these on cnc lathes, including me. I use two of these posts (front and rear) on a small cnc lathe retro.
These are expensive, but at least you won't be discouraged from inaccurate tool placement. These toolposts come in a variety of sizes to match your machine swing.
I do not know for certain how repeatable those cheap 4 way quick change toolposts are. They might be all right, too.
