This review is from: Chevy 396 and 427 (Musclecar & Hi Po Engines Series) (Paperback)
This book shows its age...just like the Big Block Chevy itself! It is a collection of articles reprinted from various Hot Rod magazine titles by recognized authors of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Generally, I'd recommend this book for everyone with a 396 or 427 since it has a lot of nostalgic value but also because it has a lot of hard-to-find detail not often found in other publications. My favorite section was the "Proven Performance" article where CJ Baker details how to build a reliable 650HP 427. The parts shopping list is a bit antiquated and most of the brand names shown won't easily be found on a web page so you can order up the parts. I like the book because it is clearly focused on these two engines and it presents what you should already know...a Big Block Chevy with a little work will make a ton of power rather inexpensively.
