Not what I expected,

This review is from: Street Supercharging: DIY Guide to Street Supercharging, How to Install and Tune Blowers (S-A Design) (Paperback)
This book did teach me a FEW things about blowers, HOWEVER it spends way to much time explaining the different types of blowers (and even a whole chapter on paxton type turbos). If you are installing a 6-71 blower like I am, and want a book that tells you number by number how to install it, this is NOT the book to buy. It doesn't contain any torque specifications for the blower, blower intake or any information of that sort. If you want to learn the history of blowers, types of blowers, and allot of advanced math solutions to blower setup, get this book. If you want to install a blower step by step, get some other book!

This review is from: Street Supercharging: DIY Guide to Street Supercharging, How to Install and Tune Blowers (S-A Design) (Paperback)
Lots of words, little solid advice. I recommend you don't spend your money on this book. Lots of theory, lots of history, plenty of pictures but no practical knowledge imparted to the reader. I seriously doubt the author, Pat Ganahl, knows the difference between a combination wrench and a rachet. He does not include any information on Boost-Referenced carbs. And he waffles on whether or not to o-ring the heads/block. He seems to have talked to a lot of people, and never bolted on a blower himself.
