I got a gift card to Amazon.com for my B-Day. I already have the Haynes Manual and the 700 tech tips from Brother George in Atlanta. Any suggestions for other 914 related books I should consider?

I'm not that impressed with the Long book, frankly... It's got some good bits in it, but, well, I dunno.

The Johnson book is a good one to get.

"How to Rebuild Your Volkswagen Air-Cooled Engine" is another good one to have, particularly if you ever plan on digging into your motor's internals.

"Caught by Camera" is a nice one; mostly a picture book. Pretty much all European 914s, including some 916s, one or both 908-motored cars, and so on.

Haynes, of course. The Lash manual also has fans.

"Excellence was Expected" by Karl Ludwigsen. That'll eat up your certificate, and probably then some. Covers all of Porsche up through the launch of the Cayenne, I believe.
