5.0 out of 5 stars Chapter 2 alone saved me [a lot of money], November 21, 2001

By	Don Bailey (Potomac Falls, VA United States) - See all my reviews

Before buying this book, I was shopping for an '85 carb'd GT to play with. Afraid of electronic fuel injection (EFI) I figured the last carb'd stang would be the perfect place to start my new hobby--performance racing and its associated mechanics / maintenance. However, the chapter describing the differences in all 5.0 engines immediately highlighted the high-performance drawbacks of several model years, including the 85 to my surprise. Before reading this chapter, I was just about to place [a lot of money] on the table for an 85 GT, but now I know better and my money will be going towards a better baseline performance platform--a model year range specifically recommended by this book. Any book that immediately saves me this much time, money, and effort rates 5 stars. A MUST buy for beginner Mustang 5.0 performance enthusiasts!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good time saver, May 16, 2000

By A Customer

I found this book the best of the three I bought from Amazon. It saved me time on the first upgrade I was doing on my 91 LX, which paid for the book right then and there. It gives some helpful details like which size wrench you'll need at each step.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for beginners, February 23, 2006

By	J. Weber - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you have never modified a Mustang before or are getting started on your first project, this is a good book to have. It covers all the basic bolt ons, how they work, and how to install them. Good photos and tips to make your project go without a glitch.
