Which Engine Rebuild Book??

I want to go out and get an engine rebuild book for small block mopars..I seen a post on here about Larry Shepard, and I googled and came up with Tom Monroe. I dont want to do anything radical. I can take one apart and put back together, but would like to learn about solid lifters, degree wheels for the cams, etc. Basically how changing or upgrading one component can affect the other components. For example, I have a 69 340 4 spd and would like to swap the 4bbl intake for a sixpack, and can this be done without having to change anything else??? any recommendations would be appreciated.
