I'm writing a brief article on Codex Sinaiticus, and I want to verify the 
information that I have concerning the textual affinities of Codex 
Sinaiticus.  In the OT, the sources I have looked at say that it is 
basically Old Greek (where that has been determined), generally inferior 
to B, but sometimes superior (e.g., in 1 Chron, Esdras B, & the prophets).

In the NT, Sinaiticus is generally counted among the Alexandrian witnesses.
However, Fee argues that it is Western in John 1-8.  Are there any other 
caveats?
