This is a good book for identification of your bow-tie small-block, although there's some lack of info regarding the first 265 engines and the '57 fuel injected 283 engines. Handy for who needs the full history about the small-block left on the back of the garage. There's even some info about the 400ci engines.

This book was very helpful findng out what kind of engine was in a car that I was trying to rebuild, so that I could match up the heads and other parts that I needed to replace

Packed with info. Chapters are clear and codes are well laid out. Took me a little bit to get used to the format, but once I got the hang of it, I was off. Helped me identify a couple of old engines I was looking at to rebuild. Saved me time.

we bought this book for my uncle who is an avid car guy and he loved it. he found a lot of great info in the book.

Es un libro práctico y completo. Si bien mi manejo del idioma inglés es limitado, se entiende con claridad y permite identificar muy bien los motores v8 chevrolet y romper con mitos y suposiciones.
En mi caso particular, un barco tenia el motor instalado que se suponia de finales de los setenta y resultó ser uno fabricado en 1957.
Este libro nos permitió encontra luego mucho más facilmente los repuestos adecuados y las normalizaciones y estándares para ese motor especifico.
Espero que lo aprovechen tanto como yo.
