Get the red cover books. The white cover is a preliminary edition.

As stated above, the White one is the preliminary. The Red one is the later edition. Get the Red one, but also get the companion book that goes with it that covers the Electrical System! It is a little smaller and I think that it says "Section 8A" on the cover. I bought mine on e-bay, I think that I paid $50 for the pair. I would try e-bay first. If you are not in a hurry, you can shop the price a little. Mine was well used, but the person who had it before me put tabs on the sections and it really helps.

Again, as previously mentioned - if time is on your side, price shop eBay. I ended up being able to get manuals for my 96 for around $50 (combined) because I was patient and bought them separately. Seems nobody wanted individual books - just the sets. More $$$ for me to spend on other stuff!
