You can find this stuff in the part of the book where Montag goes over to Faber's house for the first time. What Montag does that horrifies Faber is to start ripping up the Bible. Faber is horrified because that is, as far as he knows, the only copy of the Bible around and he doesn't want it destroyed. The last refuge for a dangerous intellectual is the stock market. That is how Faber has gotten himself some money even though he has no job. He has played the stock market and gotten enough money to use to invent the "bullet" that he gives Montag.
Faber thinks that Montag is trying to frame or trap him so he hangs up when Montag first calls. In the first phone call Montag asks Faber how many copies of Shakespeare, Plato, or Bibles are left in the country.

The plan, as Faber condenses it is, "The salamander devours its own tail." When Montag goes to Faber's home, he doesn't have a clear plan of attack. He tells Faber that they need to print some extra copies of books. He seems to have no plan after that, but Faber, jokingly adds that maybe they could make copies of books, plant the books in the homes of firemen, then turn in an alarm on those firemen so they'd be arrested and "the seeds of suspicion would be sown among the arsonists." Faber balks and to convince him to help with the plan, Montag begins to rip the pages from the Bible that he has. Faber then tells Montag that he knows a printer with an old printing press who might be able to print up a few copies of books. Faber wants to wait until the war begins and wipes out some of the problem though. Montag is going to go home to get some money to pay the printer, so Faber gives him the two-way radio seashell so that Faber can talk to Montag to help guide him and he can also him to what is said around Montag, particularly by Beatty.
