I have just picked up a project half way through and when I say project I mean everything is in peices in my garage. The only thing assembled is the shortblock and that I am going to tear down to inspect. I have been searching (here and coral) and speaking with a few people within the mustang crowd and I have not heard of anything positive about them. What recommendations do you have for them.

Manual:

1. Chilton
2. Haynes
3. Ford
4. Anything else


Thanks and welcome me

I would get the Ford manual over anything.I have a Ford manual and you cannot beat it.Better descriptions and part numbers for everything on the car.

For a projects like that you need them all, as all have high and low points IMHO.

I have a Haynes for mine, but to be honest, I almost never use the thing. Just about all I've found it useful for is torque specs.

Alright, I'll be picking up the haynes too. What is the best place for picking up the Ford Manual - does anyone offer it on CD?
