Does anybody know of a book that is only about SVO's. I was just told about it today and would love to have one. I can't remember the name of it though now.

My kids got me the book for Christmas this year. I couldn't put it down. Great information for the SVO history buff. The last section is full of cool pics of ads, and SVO print related material. David was very cool about the whole thing, I e-mailed him and told him my kids would be sending in the order form and he replied immediately and we went back and forth for a couple days, he is a wealth of info. Also got a nice bonus gift with the book that I wasn't expecting.
Thought I would let you guys know. David LaRocque is going to print another 100 copies of the SVO book The Machine Speaks For Itself. I seen his post on the SVO Mustang Owners/fans Facebook page.

I read the whole book. This book is a treasure trove of information. I was interested with page 14 of the print advertisement section. There was an advertisement for Havoline that showed 20w50 oil was used in the SVO.
Knowing that, what oil are you all using?
I thought I looked it up a while and came up with nothing specific. Um, 20/50 it is.

Got the book direct from David. Took it and had it spiral bound. Much better when flipping through the pages and cost me $8. So much information in this book!
Any idea if these books are still available?
