How to hotrod SB mopars book
In my very honest opinion, seeing that your in school and class on engines, a better book to start with and end with would be in this order;
How to rebuild my S/B MoPar
How to Hotrod my S/B Mopar
The Mopar Performance "Engines" book, that now comes in seperate engine sizes, a different one for Magnum motors.
The Big inch book, after reading the above 3, for me, turned into a "Hey, looky looky at these parts" book. The info inside was very good, but like all books, out dated by the time it hits print and picks up selling speed.
Theres no great detail inside this book. And it's a shame. It would have been better if he picked up where Larry Shepard left off in his book. (How 2 hot rod above) And gave actuall part numbers and instances and pictures of them.
While he does give enuff details that a person that has done a few engine rebuilds can use and understand, actuall bennifit(s) of the book go to expr. builders and hot rodders (DIY'ers or thinkers in theroy) that are looking to really up grade.
I believe machinest's / engine builders will love it. If they like doing something different and/or challenging.
4 out of 5 star rating. Must have? You can go fast with how to hot rod though some parts are really old, if even still made. The only problem with these books sometimes is the author seems to pedal someone parts rather than the best part sometimes.
