Anybody know of a good reference book for trainers?

Curtis, there isn't one. Seinen was working on one that had expanded in to multiple volumes, but I haven't heard any updates in a while. Trey

Still working, but it's going to be a long haul. If you have any specific questions, please post them here and I'll answer as completely as I can. Thanks!

Nothing specific, but it seems to work better for me to have a good reference handy before I start working on the data sheets. I'll get started on them (relatively) soon and post questions as I go. Just expect me to be posting rather frequently. Thanks folks.

I find the variations in trainer bolt faces, mind boggling. I finally took some of the bolts to work, xeroxed them and included them with my datasheets when I sent them to Chip. That was sort of pre-internet. Much easier to ask questions now.
