Yeah, I was afraid of that.

Did you get the Bill Fisher book(let)? I ordered one through ebay as well,but haven't received it yet....
That's the booklet! I saw it on my typical eBay search at the same time that other thread got started. I figured it was a long shot but at six cylinders the need to go beyond stock might have been minimal and at least worth a look.

I do read the technical posts even if I am the resident technoklutz. If our next house has a garage, I will get some stock beater and learn on it with the hopes of being able to apply it to the car(s) that really matter to me.
