Best Book to learn more about our cars/ modding cars in general
Hey, If I wanted a gret book to read that would give a great general breakdown on automobiles, performance parts and modding engines....what are some of your favorite books you've read? Sort of the "Building a Peformance Car for Dummies"
Ls1 Tech is a great resource, and I know you can't replace hands on experience, but what is a good start to a better understanding of our cars and learning more about how it all goes together to produce that ever so addicting horsepower we all crave?

Chiltons are nice.
I reccommend John Lingenfelter(SP?)'s book. I forget the name and can't find it, at the moment, but it gives great advice on how to set up a car. How to make power, the whys of it, so on so fourth.
Of course, those books are purely supplemental to actually doing the work.
