“The Racing Engines Builder’s Handbook” by Tom Monroe is very comprehensive and just about covers anything that will come up in the course of a normal rebuild.  This book doesn’t cover the Y specifically but covers the generalities of any rebuild.  Although the title has “Racing” in it, you will find that it touches on all pertinent areas of a stock rebuild.  Good bang for the buck for this particular book.

  I have not seen either of those two books but I do have the Tom Monroe " How to rebuild your small-block Ford" and it is VERY VERY GOOD. By HPBooks and I think any book by Tom Monroe will be good also. Pete

have the one and only Y block book and now looking for a couple more on engine rebuilding to develop my skills; my Jegs catalog shows a couple that have good reviews on Amazon:

"Engine Blueprinting" by Rick Voegelin

and

"Engine Builder's Handbook" by Tom Monroe

any comments/experience with either of these? or recommendations on others?

appreciate it!
