Help book?
 

Do any of you guys know of a book other than a haynes or chiltons manual that explains in good detail the rebuilding of an engine. Even more specifically what mods can and should be done together. Installing a cam, replacing valves, and that kind fo stuff? Man, i am just full of questions lately. It is getting dangerously close to the time i tear the engine down and i would like things to go as smooth as possible.

Thanks

Go to Barnes & Noble.

I bought a "Hot Rod" The best of. High performance small block FORD engines book. It covers alot of stuff. Great book.

Theres also ones on fuel injection etc.

I had always used Ford shop manuals. No need for that unless you have access to them.

There are alot of very important steps in a rebuild. Makes zero sense to tear down a motor just to slap bearings in and put back together.

Resize EVERYTHING or get new stuff. Assemble and check, disasemble and check, final assemble.

My first motor I used mics, now plastic gauge. My first motor went 80k miles, it was a cleveland motor with a heavy footed teenager.
