New Book: How to Build Small-Block Ford Racing Engines
It took me over two years to write this book, but it's finally off the presses. In a way it was a good thing--I was delayed by a little thing like a prostotectomy. It allowed me to include the new M-6010-BOSS302 and M-6010-BOSS351 blocks, which I would have overwise missed had I been on schedule. Anyway, I cover the parts from which you can choose and tedious procedures required to build SBF's.
The photo below of a Probe doing a wheelie was chosen for the cover. My friend, Don Bevers, started with a Dart 302 block and topped it off with a pair of heavily modified SC1 Yates heads. Not exactly an engine for your Cobra or GT40, it's amazing the peak power this 16:1 347 produced, or 920 hp at 9,000 rpm. He set a couple of NHRA records with the car.
