5.0 out of 5 stars Mathis - the authority for 5.0 Mustangs, January 5, 1998
I have both this and the drivetrain book by Mathis. This is the most detailed information you will get from a general automotive upgrade book. I highly recommend these for anyone interested in modifying their Mustang. Includes diagrams for manufacturing your own parts, as well as an extensive list of parts mfrs.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best late-model 5.0-Liter books ever written., May 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mustang Performance Handbook : Engine and Drivetrain Modifications for Street, Drag Strip or Road Racing Use. Covers All Models of the Ford Mustang, 1979 to present. (Paperback)
I think Mr. Mathis desrves his own show on TNN. Without a whole-lot of tact, Mathis shares his opinions on which year models to avoid and how truly expensive many mods really are. This book is "no-bull".

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bible for Mustang Guys, November 29, 2000
By 
Dave Freeman (Garland, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mustang Performance Handbook : Engine and Drivetrain Modifications for Street, Drag Strip or Road Racing Use. Covers All Models of the Ford Mustang, 1979 to present. (Paperback)
This book is the numeral uno source for making your mustang scream. It has ALL the answers and I couldn't have done any thing to my Ford without it! No matter your experience level in the hot rod field, the material in this hanbook is for all levels. I was clueless, couldn't tell you the difference between a strut and roller rocker. Now I have a daily driver that runs low 11's and pulls 1.02 lateral g's in a turn; and I did everyhting! I bought a copy for all of the guys in my stang club, and they now have the knowledge they needed and so wanted to have.
