Default LSX Expert Needed

Do you know everything about building the LSX engine to kick ***? Can you rattle off bearing clearances, pushrod lengths, and spring heights in your sleep? Know the ins and outs of setting up an engine for power adders? Have you ever wanted to write a book? If so, I may have the project of your dreams.

Motorbooks is seeking an author for a new project, How to Build and Modify the GM LSX Engine. It is to be a 192 page book, requiring approximately 50k words and 300 color photos.

An English degree is not required, but solid grammar skills and the ability to construct coherent and cohesive text that clearly communicates your theories to the reader are a must. Likewise, you don’t need to be a professional photographer, but sharp, high-resolution digital photos are required. Naturally, advanced knowledge of the LSX engine family is needed, as is the enthusiasm to produce the best book ever on the greatest engine ever.

If you are interested in learning more about this project, please send writing and photography samples to lsxproject@mbipublishing.com


Motorbooks is the world's leading publisher and distributor of books, calendars, DVDs, die casts, and other products for the enthusiast. We carry over 8,000 titles in dozens of categories, including automotive, hot rods, muscle cars, motorcycles, racing & motorsports, trains & railroads, trucks, commercial and emergency vehicles, tractors, and more.
