Book Description

Bill Carroll's performance engineering handbooks June 1, 1991
For all Ford V8 owners and restorers, a complete handbook with hard to find specifications of all engines up to1972 including the OHC "Indy" engines. There's adjustments and fine tuning data of every engine from 221 to 462 CID, plus a massive list of the original factory part numbers for heavy duty and "High-Per" parts. With important details of engine assembly and ignition-carburetion modifications for premium performance. "Switch and Swap" of heavy-duty parts, from one size engine to another, is clearly explained. This is the "best ever" low-bucks handbook to upgrade horsepower and durability of the best of the early Ford V8 engines. For good reason, this book was known as "The Stocker's Bible."

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all V8s, September 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ford V8 Performance Guide: The Stocker's Bible (Bill Carroll's performance engineering handbooks) (Paperback)
Beware the product description - this is not a book "For all Ford V8 owners and restorers...". It completely misses the first 3 decades of Ford V8s (no flathead or Y-block info at all). It only goes back to the '62 Windsor 221. It's still a good read, but not nearly as comprehensive as the product description implies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rare Ford motor information, July 25, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ford V8 Performance Guide: The Stocker's Bible (Bill Carroll's performance engineering handbooks) (Paperback)
The repro of the Bill Carrolls Ford Performance manual is outstanding, I had lost my original several years ago and have looked all over for one until I logged on to the Amazon site looking for it. this manual is the only one that gives All the breakdowns on all the motors Ford had built in that time period and since I own a couple of old Ford muscle cars, this manual is just what the Ford Doctor ordered. I am glad that Amazon had EXACTLY what I was looking for.

Thanks Amazon,
