'Manual' labor?

[NW Redneck]

Which manual should I get for my '75 OMC? When I searched for manuals, the Seloc ones say they are the ONLY factory authorised manuals. I've read a few times on iBoats that they are cr@p. What should I be looking for?

I have a Glenn's manual now, and it has been pretty good so far. Most of the work I've done has either been on the engine or accessory systems (tilt/trim, etc.) Haven't done anything with the outdrive itself except lube and oils. I've never worked on an outdrive and would like to make sure I have the RIGHT info if I ever have to. Thanks in advance!
