CD-ROM

I am thinking about putting together a CD-ROM detailing all my improvements
to the Vanagon engine.  It would include pictures, diagrams, instructions,
parts list, source list, possible audio, on how I built my engine.  It would
not be overtly "technical" in the since that I am not going to try to
replace
Bently as a guide but detail what and why I made the changes that I did plus
try to clarify Bently in some places.
I will also include the problems I have ran into and how I resolved them.

I also will include my suspension modifications: springs, sway bars, tires,
rims etc.

The reason for the CD-ROM is that I have a lot of pictures (more still to
take) and to email them would take a lot of time per request.  And the
picture size on the Internet would make it hard to see details.

Each picture would be @ 1 to 2 meg for a good sized picture to see details.
40 to 50+ pics would be a lot of time for downloads

I have already had a request for one from someone that saw the article about
my Vanagon in Hot VWs magazine.

Let me know if there would be some interest in the CD-ROM.
(There would be a some cost to cover the materials used.)
