That was applied to the 70-72 Manual first since it had been without an update the longest.
Many folks felt that the 70-72 Manual changed the status quo for the Manuals and therefore that the 68-69 Manual should receive the same type of update.
I hope you decide to buy one.
Regards,
Alan

Here are 2 photos that I think illustrate what the 70-72 Manual has become.


Thanks Alan..will talk later when or if I need some help

Picked up the new 68-9 book today. Also got the 70-2. Wow, what an improvement over the previous issue. And, boy they do get heavy carrying them around Carlisle for a few hours. Well worth the money.

Mine came in the mail yesterday. Really a terrific update to the fourth edition with much new data. All of the color pictures are great too. Well done !
