2 out of 5 stars poor information about book   August 9, 2007

Be aware, this book was printed in 1994. So, the "Present" is 1994. Meaning 5.0 engines only. No good for my 97 cobra. The book seemed to have good info for 5.0s though. Lots of black and white pics.

Title lists as applicable to present- doesn't cover newer mustangs, only 5.0 engines, not 4.6. no help at all.

4 out of 5 stars Good overall review, racing focus   September 1, 2005

The reason this book is not five stars is that I'm building my car for street use and the author tends to focus on motorsports. So while some subjective remarks like "the stock rollers are garbage" may be very true in a road racing application they may not be true for a high performance street application. Regardless there are still some real gems and if you follow the recomendationas you will build a bulletproof, if not cheap, powertrain.


4 out of 5 stars tres bon livre pour modele injection   January 10, 2005

Ce livre est tres claire et precis, le seul point qui ma decu c'est qu'il parle seulement des modeles injection. Mais pour le reste pas un mots a dire, j'ai adore.
