I just talked to Ken and he says a copy is in the mail for me.
I'm just curious if anyone has one yet and has had a chance to look at it.

Got an e-mail from Ken (tachometer publishing) the other day inviting me to order it, but I haven't yet.

Are these 3rd editions a revised version of all the material of the original book?

NOPE, it's MORE FI info.
I talked to Ken back when he was putting together the first book, and he said that he would be putting together a second FI book with more info. But in between the 2 FI books, he would be publishing other books with info on cars and engines. At that time I asked him to reserve Book #1 for me, but I don't know if that is what will arrive.
The first volume is numbered, and since I have a 56 Corvette, I asked Ken if he could sign and send me #56 book. He did, and that is what I have-------------both soft and hard bound.
