Hi Tony,
thanks for that link--I am lucky enough to have been gifted one of these by one of our long time and then retiring Parts Dept. Gentleman (Charles Marshall, RIP)
Way back then he thought I could use it more so than anyone else he knew at The Dealership.
Pages seem to Date range between 1938 and 1948 in my one and is around 2.5" thick.
Which also now reminds me that there are some 6 pages of Anti Friction Bearings of various extinct makers in there too--will get these done soon too.
Thanks and Cheers,

Wow, Eddie, that’s a historical document! With that and a NPR I’d be set for life.. Would make things a lot easier..
Platinum encrusted with large, fine diamonds!
Thanks, Eddie and Tony.
Anybody into the early cats should download this info post haste.
Boot to the top again.
These charts or at least the link should be downloaded to your computers for easy reference in the future.

Deebo, are you able to convert Eddies pages into a single PDF like you did with the oil filter info, that makes printing them so much easier.
Thanks
Mike
No problem, Mike, will do! Fingers crossed I can remember how I did it..
