I can't find my copy unfortunately. I only found the Torker tuning guide. Sorry.

Would like to find a clean copy but would consider a well used one if complete. Thanks for all the responses!!!

One on Ebay.

Just to be clear, this ebay one is not an "original". Notice the binding of a true original in the picture I posted compared to the one on ebay which is stapled.
Just wanted to point out the difference if you are looking for real original.

Thanks, I did not notice that,

Are the copies 100% like the originals (except for the binding)?

The copy I bought around '89-'90 from H-O has the stapled binding just like the ebay ad...

Here is a comparison of my books. The original Engine Design and Blueprint Assy. book with the plastic binding I purchased in the 1970's, can't remember for sure but seems like early to mid 70's. The Parts and Specs book shown was purchased much later because I think my original was ripped off, but that's another story.
Anyway, the originals looked like they were typed with double spacing and all that. The newer copies appear to have been done with a computer program.
Hope this helps.
