The Porter book is a wonderful start, but you will need a shop manual as
well--I like my Haynes, and the Chilton is a nice backup, but I wouldn't use it
as
my primary reference. The Rivergate OR Paul Asguirrson (lister) kits with
the DAtsun 210 5-speed are reportedly wonderful additions to the 1275 engine,
but I don't know whether they will fit the 1098 or not. Paul?
