And of course goes through each component of the engine. But it also is very up to date, e.g. including description of MME’s Titus block. It spends time on going through what’s available aftermarket, e.g. the many different heads available. I think this book makes it easier to choose the components you need. It also includes some bench testing of some built engines, quite interesting.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:blue'>What’s missing? Well it’s not a book you use to assemble an engine, with torque numbers and patterns, you need another book for that. And the engine tuning part is weak, but for that of course you have my book, Tuning Made Easy (sorry).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:blue'>Somebody mentioned on this “forum” that George had written a book with errors in it, I don’t know if there are any in this book.
