    I am looking for Book of Engine Swaps. I think it was a Peterson publication. I think the year was between !970 & 1974. It showed an Oldsmobile & Trans engine being swapped into a 49 t0 51 Mercury. The swap was done by myself in a shop a I had at the time. I,d like to see it again just to see how crude the work was . Thanks. Dale.
