Cost Clipper 215 references?

Does anyone know where I might find a reference manual for the 215ci Cost Clipper 6 cylinder in my '53 F-100? I don't see a FTE forum for it, either. Would a shop manual have what I'm looking for? A Chilton's book perhaps? Where would I find maintenance/tuning information? How do the text/illustration catalogs differ from the shop manual?

Now that I'm getting started with the restoration I'm filled with questions. Thanks for the help! :7

The shop manual from the FTE online store should have just about everything you need. My 1956 manual has tuneup and major overhaul procedures plus tables of ignition timing values, plug gaps, point dwell, bolt torque, and lots of other specs for each engine. It's the best money you'll ever spend if you are really interested in working on your truck. Enjoy your ride!
