The first Guy Croft book entitled 'Modifying and Tuning Fiat/Lancia Twin-Cam Engines' was very popular and rocketed in value when it went out of print. Copies of it still command high prices when seen (rarely) on ebay.

The new Guy Croft "Workshop Manual" book is written from scratch and it's not just a  reprint of the original.  Subject material will be VAST - surpassing anything that's been written before. Details of the book and how to pre-order your copy at

I think I will save my ?100 for something else.... I suppose it's worth buying if you are planning to build a highly modified engine for your car. I'm not though. I'm sure he will sell all the 500 copies no problem though.

Hey ,

I will buy one to use and on as investment. It will sure appreciate in value as soon as it Guy sells all 500 copies as it is sure to happen very quickly.

PS: This book like the previous one is not for those who just drive 131 for cursing pleasure but rather race it , and race it hard.  I do and for all those who want to understand how does one achieve 200 horse power from a 2 liter TC Lampredi engine (original construction of 1966)  and the engine survives  not just one race , not just one season but a decade of racing this is the one to read and study. 

Got an unused mint copy of the original on ebay for 80 quid i thought that was expensive.
Have had a lack of posts as my internet provider is causing me major greif.

I hope the new Guy Croft book i got will make intresting reading even though i do just cruise the 20l sport.
