By A Customer

The book covers all the basic systems with many options for performance upgrades at minimal cost. This is easier than thumbing through all your old magazines or investing in several other books.

LOTS of History, Interchange data, and tips that could only come from someone who's "been there, done that!" Many parts and "special solutions" source information. Full of pictures, including identification and step-by-step procedures. Model comparisons; safety, performance, & reliability upgrades; engine swaps; suspensions; transmissions; even electrical - and all VERY readable. Stresses the importance of keeping an eye on "the Big Picture" - i.e. if you swap in a bigger engine, you'd BETTER upgrade the brakes, etc. too. Written for those of us with, in the author's words, "a terminal case of the screw-with-its!"
