You can buy reprints of the original Ford shop manuals from any of the vendors that sell mid 50s-early 60s Ford parts.Mac's antique auto parts,Concours Parts,Tee-Bird Parts,Larry's are a few that come to mind.

You should be able to get any basic info from any year manual, except the 54 239 ci. It is one year only on some parts. I like the old Motors shop manuals, they are very detailed.

Since I'm a total FNG when it comes to y-blocks,been looking at shop manuals on Ebay.I've picked up a few Ys in various conditions from maybe workable,to mock up block only..So I don't know which one I'll eventually use.Is there enough difference that I'll need a manual for the year engine? Probably use one of the 57-59 engines I've got..Will a shop book for any of those years be OK,or is there some little thing that'll screw me up if I use a different vintage motor? From what I've read here and elsewhere,seems like any will be OK...

Sorry for the noob question,but if it's possible to screw up stuff,I'm a professional
