How much is the helms manual, and is it any better than the Chiltons or Haynes?

Also...

about this conversion, how much difference do you notice from using drums? Is it really worth all the time and $$ to do the conversion since I think only 10-20% of the breaking is from the rears.???

The helm's was a present from my mother...

$65 US for the shop manual..

$35 US for the electrical manual...

The chiltons is vague at best...

The Helm's gets down to the nitty gritty on everything...

I would highly recommend it...

You are correct about most of the braking done up front...

I don't have the swap in yet...

But if your looking at replacing the rear drums/shoes beacuse of wear it is a viable alternative...

I would only really recommend doing it if you need to replace or have money flowing out your ****...

Well considering im kinda poor now amd less than a year ago we had our breaks overhauled with new drums on back and rotos up front I think we have awhile left on this car. This will have to wait untill I have more money flow, preferably when I join the working world lol.

Helms... can you order them off the net like from Amazon.com etc??

as for the conversion parts, what price am I looking at, and where would be a good place to get them.

thanks
