Hi List,
When Vizard's A-Series book was published (blue edition) and later revised &
updated (yellow edition) the editor for this book was a guy called Rod
Grainger. He apparently was one of Haynes tuning experts. A few years back
he left Haynes and set up his own publishers (Veloce) who went on to publish a
range of tuning books including ones on Spridgets, MGB engines, Weber Carbs,
A-Series and so on. I would guess that Haynes don't have anyone of Rod's
calibre to edit Vizard's work now - but don't quote me, I may be wrong and it
is just a guess.
Finally, many years ago David (Vizard) told me that his A-Series book was
Haynes best seller (I think of all time).

PS: Haynes do have a web site, as do Veloce
