Re: which manual(s)

Pete:

I have used a Haynes primarily and a Chiltons secondarily.   If you are going 
to get into engine rebuilding, the Chiltons has some good informative pages, 
while the Haynes has a step-by step.  And buying both books won't set you back 
a fortune.  Early on, I bought a "Factory Manual" from Moss and have used it 
very little compared to the other two.
