  • Smokey Yunick's Power Secrets Book

    Great book from an unorthodox and lateral thinking racer. He developed / engineered some amazing methods for his NASCA racer. Long live in memory of Smokey, a genius in automotive !

  • Smokey is still the man!

    Having been a engine builder in many forms of racing, I am a firm believer that Smokey has forgot more than most of us ever learned. A new engine builder can read this book and gain a lifetime's expierience in one day. My copy has hi-liter yellow on every worn out, dog eared page.

When he says pay attention, he is telling you something he has spent millions of dollars and thousands of hours proving! I re-read this book trying to find an example of how time may have passed his knowledge base by. Guess what? It hasnt!

  • Chevy Engine Building

    This is a good general knowlage base book. It has many theories and old school way of doing things but is not very specific of how to do anything. Basicly it points you in the general direction but does not tell you how to get there. For the knowlage of Smokey this book leaves alot to be desired, and should not be considered a manual for engine building but more of a guide of how it was done in the hey day of racing when it was not required to spend thousands of dollars to go race on sunday.
