I wouldn't call it a complete guide,
but it does look great in print.
if you've been to that shop in person,
its much more impressive in the magazine.
no offense adam

What does the shop look run down or something? You do know that shops like that usually don't have that much overhead, and their parts and service are usually cheaper. For what I paid for my sub-frame (as compared to the Pettit version) could be a beneifiting factor because of it.

Not saying anything bad about adam he does good work
has tons of parts is very trust worthy, they just need a
new location, the place they are in is way to small,
there is not enough room to even allow the floors to
be cleaned.

I wouldn't say it was a complete 'How To'... They showed some pictures of some guys putting a 20B in an RX-7 and pointed out some of the parts they used. It could have been alot better IMO. Where is the tuning tips? Where are good alternatives to the parts they used? What are all you options with this swap? Pros and Cons of the swap. Not that there are any cons that I can think of... I need details...

If they gave out all the details, that would put them out of business for future 20b conversions.
