Coach 62 "Coach" (Naples, FL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: High Performance Chevy Big Block Cylinder Heads & Valvetrain (The Best of Hot Rod Series; Vol 5) (Paperback)

This is a pretty good book, but the information is a bit outdated. These days more importance should be placed on things like roller cams and fuel injection.

But for the basics of building a good short block and for the backyard mechanic, it's a pretty solid book.
