Ford Windsor sb review

Overall good description as well as technique of how to tune a sb engine, but i think the pictures could be a lot better, instead of of black and white, use color and clearer pictures to illustrate a particular topic.
The ideal guide for rebuilding small block ford engines.

Before you read up further,this book doesnt cover the 351 Cleveland engine.

If you are about to rebuild and add performance to your small block Ford engine this book is ideal.Takes you through a history of fords small block V8's: 302/5.0L,351W/5.8L and EFI manifolds and performance upgrades.Note:It doesnt cover the 351C.This book is divided into sections with plenty of information and photos throughout.Even tells you about EFI engines and fitting into earlier model Fords.Also includes performance build ups and superchargers,turbocharging and nitrous.Definitely a comprehensive book thats easy to understand and good value too.

I give this book 4 stars as they are ALMOST as good as the "Cartech/S-A Design-workbench" books.
Very Helpfull

I've purchased almost all Ford SB Windsor literature.. this particular book is absolutely the Best I got. I'm not saying it's perfect, but still is unique in a way that it illustrates how to carry out performance assemblies step by step.. such as building a 347 cid stroker, porting a head, installing force induction stuff, timing a cam or tuning a carb (I use EFI but it's good to know how). This book is not another performance parts catalog in the shape of a "book"! This one is very similar to what you can find on the tech pages of websites such as FordMuscle.com, CarCraft.com, MustangandFords.com
good starter book

i bought this book to learn the basics of the windsor engines and it has a lot of information....now i am ready for more and it is time to move on to more specifics...i do recommend this book highly if you are going to build a windsor and want some basic info on what the different components are.
