Which engines are the best 6 cylinders. It seems I read somewhere that mid 70's models were lacking in durability. What was it and is there a fix now? And as far as value, which would be the best.

Did a search for the Bruce Anderson book and got "Tantra For Gay Men" as a result!!!! Guess it's a different author by the same name (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Do you recommend this book ( not the gay tantric one!!) as an engine rebuild manual or is it more tailored for the 911 buyer?
I am looking at a couple of 911 motors but they will most likely need a bit of refreshing so a bit of reference literature will be a great help
