I'm looking for the latest, greatest A65/A75 overhaul/repair manual. Aircraft Spruce and other suppliers sell about 6 different versions which command a price of anywhere between $14/ea and $90 ea.

Presumably, one of them is the latest/greatest. (And I recognize that the latest, greatest may be pretty old).

Anyway, which manual should I buy? Here's what's available at Spruce:

Description Part No. Price
CONTINENTAL A-65 OVHL/MAINT/PT #A-A40 $14.50
CONT OVERHAUL MANUAL # X30010 $92.00
CONT. PARTS CATALOG X30011A $69.50
CONT OVERHAUL MANUAL # X30013 $92.00
CONT. PART CATALOG (BK) X30014 $61.95
CONT OVHL MANUAL # X30016 $89.95
CONT ENG O/H & PART MAN X30017 $62.00
CONT O/H PARTS MAN A65 A75 X30008 $89.50

Thanks in advance,

Kyle

Which one has the most recent publication date? The latest dated publication should incorporate all the pertient poop and have all the old campfire tales deleted.
