Tom,

Thanks, I'll check out ebay. $60 would be fine and for the head gaskets and stripping the engine, etc. I doubt LHD/RHD differences would be significant.

I got my Bentley manual on eBay. I'm sure somebody will ship it to the
UK if you ask. Obviously, it covers the left hand steering version of
the car. I doubt the changes are major, but there are probably some.
But maybe that's an option for you. I seem to recall paying $60 or so
for the manual.
