That manual on the internet......

[melchett]

.....has anyone actually downloaded this: VT-VX+Tech+CD[1].iso.torrent ??????

Im wondering if its worth signing (including paying) up or not. 600 odd Mb is a pain in the arse if its not worth it. Or are there any other hints on how to get hold of a manual?

Why would you have to pay for a torrent download?

Erm, never used it and one particular link I went to wanted $4 to sign up. I dont suppose you have a link to a free one do you?

try "vt-vx tech cd torrent" search on google, you might need to go through a few to get one that works.

Think about the kinds of people that seed illegal torrents and host torrent search engines. Then consider if you want to start paying money to them.

A hard copy will cost a small fortune like my 1998 F body manual did all those years ago. If you want to do any work properly then you need the GM build manual and if it's from the net it'll save you a fortune.

That said, it's nice to have a paper copy in front of you when checking torque or angle settings during an engine build (print off what you need). Others just use an air gun until it's tight.

I got a copy of it ages ago and its ok, it just takes a bit of navigating through the pages. Well worth having though. I thought there used to be a link to the torrent on the forum somewhere

(what was worng with .ftp?)

and found a link to the manual that worked and no probs, job done!
