Mike,
Yellow bible is David Vizard's book om tuning the A Series engine.
You can probably get the info you need *re*, which needle to use from APT,
who are in your neck of the woods. David Anton who owns APT was David
Vizard's partner in the early days. They can also supply you with
Vizard's book. I personally would recommend NOT buying it as it would
likely delay your project by years and cost you thousands of dollars. Don't
ask me how I know!
