5.0 out of 5 stars
The old boys show us how it was done
While a few thumb worn copies of the original edition may show up at swap meets, it's cool to have a brand new copy that won't fall apart at the seams. It's not so much a history book but, rather a window that shows you how performance was accomplished long before anyone ever uttered the words "small block chevy". There are many techniques and parts vendors...

History Lesson
Great info for a history lesson. If you are reading to get info on how to build a 6 cyl in the 21st century you dont need this book. This book does have a few do's and don'ts based on trial and error from great engine builders of yesteryear

This review is from: How to Hop Up Chevrolet & GMC Engines (Paperback)
While a few thumb worn copies of the original edition may show up at swap meets, it's cool to have a brand new copy that won't fall apart at the seams. It's not so much a history book but, rather a window that shows you how performance was accomplished long before anyone ever uttered the words "small block chevy". There are many techniques and parts vendors that have been lost with the ages. Some techniques are no longer practiced and it would be well advised to take caution with some of their advice. Let's face it in 1951, there were no shoulder harnesses or SRSes,and dashboards were steel, safety never really crossed their minds. Still, it's sure a fun book to have.

Great book and a wealth of information. Only bad issue is that some products are no longer available.
