Title: J Seamans - engine rebuild 2
Post by: iggy21uk on 22 August 2008, 19:35:20
OK - I have got to page 33 of approx 60 pages that has steps on J Seaman  V6 engine rebuild with help Geffd [worked on V6 at factory] & Mark [forum expert] should I continue?

Rapidshare was to slow to download so have posted on my webspace
takes about 2mins get  it in pdf format.

Try Here:

Had to take link off. Plusnet said I was over the top on my bandwith limit.   :-/

Please post what you think ?

I mean no disrespect to Mr Seaman or to iggy21uk, but is it possible to make the "Thanks to J Seamen" banner a bit "quieter" or maybe put it in a header? Only that it makes the foreground text hard to read.

So far otherwise, it looks great. Nicely paced, well worded and well illustrated. Looking forward to the final result.

Will do if I finish it, just don't want it copied while not complete.
Catch 22 - no interest will not spend any more time on it.

Thanks for input  :y

Downloaded pdf from your web site - great photos - sure will be of help to other oofers.  Write ups quite good as well.  Shame about the background "banner" though.  Well worth having on pc or printing out.

As I said, where did you lift it from - I know its J Seamans work, but if it came from another forum, and its not J Seaman who posts it here, there may be a copyright issue...

Hi guys,

Thought I'd clarify this for you in case people are worried about copyright. The work was done by me and you can feel free to do with it what you like. Good luck to the person posting it, took me ages to do! Hope it helps some of you

All the best

James

Thanks James :y

Iggy21uk - thats the go ahead I was looking for, we can host on OOF, which has (virtually) unlimited download restrictions.  Upload to that same location, and I'll move over to our images server :y

No probs, just one thing - can you make the bit that says thanks to JSeaman bigger ;)

The pictures are in one file. text in another. Pictues need to be added in correct place in the text file . That what I' m in the process of doing.

Got to picture just over 100 of about 380 ish  :o

Could be possible, but then it becomes more form over less function... ;D

For the record, are you happy with a footer on each page or something like that? Recognition of your good work is in order.

Also, recognition of the good work that iggy21uk is putting in to making this a working document is in order too.  :y

It will go on our images server which has bags of monthly bandwidth, bags of disk space, and good connectivity :y
