I haven't heard anything about that book but this one has gotten pretty good
reviews. This is a quote from devilbrad over on bionicdodge.
"I got home today and the "How to build big inch small block Mopars" book was
here. I spent a couple hours reading it and all I can say is "Excellent
material!!" I was pleasantly suprised at the amount of Magnum motor info in it.
Lots of good tech. Oiling systems, block prep, and extensive coverage of R3
blocks. They compared Magnum to LA stuff in every arena and some parts were
very techinical and formulas were abundant. If you like to read, I highly
recommend this book! Opened my eyes in some areas. Good thing the 318 isnt
bolted back together, gotta make some simple changes now!"
