Default Suggestion for Tony (Nine Ball)

I think you (and PSJ) should write a book on LS1/LS6 performance, and possibly have contributions from some of the users on this site. It could be "The LS1Tech.com Guide to LS1/LS6 Performance".

I just read Chris Endres' book "Chevy LS1/LS6 Performance", and while it was pretty good, it wasn't very indepth. It would have 2 or 3 paragraphs for each topic, and instead of really explaining things, it just recommended what parts to use and then went on to the next topic. I was hoping for more information on cutting edge LS1 technology, and some basic discussion of 'LS1 engine theory'... Basically, I just think someone could do better.

Anywho, just a thought.

Chris Endres started on this site as an Administrator when we first kicked it off. He had no time at all to hang out here when he began writing that book, thus he had to resign here. Your idea sounds great, but that would require yet another clone of me to handle. Writing a book is a full time job in itself.

I would rather put the time into this site and help to keep providing the best LS1 technical site on the net. We ARE the source of information, books get outdated.
