With turbos there is no time to read it during the runs, but if turbos are off the engine, there is over eleven seconds to read it ...

Got mine today ( Thanks to Charlie ) and book looks good. All pictures are good quality, well organized and easily readable. Couple of mishaps occurred but those are not his faults. On page 102 captions under pics #7 and #8 must have been switched... One of our pics has caption from another planet, as our pistons are nothing special. That picture just shows how head gaskets blow under boost pressure (or detonation). And those combustion chambers are truely stock ECZ-C chambers, just partially polished. And I think, if racing engines would have been covered more and to every modification and to all combinations, it would take another book to cover it all. Or how, Ted, Keith C, Tim, Royce, Jerry C and Charlie B? Also, if more history lessons are needed, that can be found from internet on Ted's and John Mummert's pages or from Eickmans book, right?

Got my book as well, it sure would have been handy when I blew the motor in my 57 wagon. I'm used to chevys, inline six Fords and Mopars so this was pretty new to me. Lots of little quirky things with these motors. But, I do like them.

Ted , Jerry C talked to Charlie recently.  Charlie had no Idea what the cover picture would be, he had no input.. The publisher found it the picture and used it... 

My copy of the book arrived yesterday.  While I've simply thumbed through the pages so far and haven't done a detailed read, the book looks like it will be a good reference for those that are wanting to work on their own engines.  Looks to be a high quality paper and the pictures are good and clear.  Didn't see a credit or explanation for the front cover picture though.

We have seen a band here in Finland which is called "Knuclebone Oscar" and it plays mighty good rock'n roll . And we sure do not Polish our cars too often... Haven't seen the book yet, but must have been a shock to see something done here in Finland . We might have done something new when the second edition of the book launches... hopefully.

My books came in today as well. Very well put together.  You have to be downright nitpickin' to throw rocks at the thing. There are some informational tidbits left out of course, and there are some typos here and there. Too bad that some of us could not have proofed the book before it went to print. I do wish he would have mentioned/shown what rods he used in the performance build at the end of the book.
