Mike, let me know if you need me to scan and email any Bentley pages. Just give me a call. (note to team: Mike graciously sent me two 1.9s (and accessories) - well his wife made him make room in the garage...when he did his Bostig and auto to manual conversions. I ended up using one of his engines in my 1.9 to 2.2 conversion.)
