Default Automotive Principles

As of June 2012 I had absolutly no automotive experience or background. Since then I've been getting my hands dirty and loving it. Thing is, although I'm great at tearing things apart and putting them back together, I had no real understanding of how the things work that I was fixing. So, I purchased a 1700pg automotive training manual to educate myself. Thought I would take the things out of it (in my own words) that relate to the LT-5 engine and put them to paper (keyboard really). The reason is two-fold; 1- it helps me to remember what I'm learning 2-thought I share what I've learned to help others like myself. I have used the manual as a reference. The manual is a 1985 U.S. Army automotive training manual (apparently the person(s) selling this have permission to reproduce it). Dated, but it has everything relative to our engines, except maybe the later produced ECM (still has the basics of computer control though). Was thinking of making it a Sticky (Cliff, would need your help with that) and adding sections as I read and write more.
So, the question is this a good idea (will people find it useful) or a bad one (everyone already knows this and no one really cares to read it)? Here's a sample of what I wrote (saved it to one of my albums, I'll add more content and pictures later, if people like it).

Let me know what you think and if anything needs to be corrected.
