Here's something you should have the link to at all times, just for reference.

It is quite large, about 56mb in size so give your computer some time to load. Its very useful, though.

Good luck!

I have that book, and you're right, it is nice, but honestly I think he's way beyond anything that he can learn from that book at this point. He's already got a built motor and hoping for 400+ wheel horses. That particular book just covers the swap basics, like what mounts to use, how to keep A/C, that kind of thing. I'm thinking he's probably looking for wiring diagrams and that kind of stuff...

In that case, he'd probably want to go with a Helms/factory service manual. The Haynes might be sufficient too. I know they've got torque specs and some wiring diagrams in the back.

Definitely check out the website posted above...you don't want to pay $50 or more for a factory manual when you can download it online for free...
