New Oldsmobile Engine Book by Bill Trovato
This book has very specific tips on how to build an Olds engine that will hold up to racing rpm. The Olds engine is very different from what is required on most other engines.This book starts from scratch and goes right through the final details. The revised edition has info on roller cams, which has to be up to date. Mr. Trovato has long experience building Olds and other engines. In the book, he dispels internet rumors which are not based on personal experience. This is a seriously thoughtful technical treatise, not a bit of hype or guesswork to be found. It doesn't pass over details. I'd recommend this book, as I have experience with these engines, and know this is what I was looking for.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
