High everyone.  Would really appreciate your collective insight here.

I'm looking for a good Y-Block 'How To' book.  What do you guys think is the best one?

I already own "Ford Y-Block: How to Repair and Rebuild the 1954-62 Ford OHV V-8" by James Eickman.  I'm reading it now and really like it.  However my issue is with the printing.  It's a new edition and it basically looks as if it was photocopied, literally, from an older edition.  So the pictures are completely unviewable.  Motorbooks International did a horrible job.

I can't find an old edition (which I assume would have pictures you can actually see??) so I'm hoping that there are other books out there as well.
