What was this?

What was this book all about? Anyone have any insight into what this book had/has/or where it can be had?

Pretty much all that's been said about it is in that thread. Apparently it's out of print, so your best bet is to try to find someone who still ahs a few copies available, maybe someone on Ebay has a copy or you might get lucky and stumble across one at a yard sale or something. But let's not get into any more discussion of copying the book, our webmaster made our position on that quite clear in that thread.

Its a VERY good book the discribes several ways to make power with the 2.6, 2.8, 2.9 and a little of the 4.0 engines. Shows pictures of how to port heads and several other things.

Wow. This must be some kind of highly propriety information guessing on how my first post was so editted by the moderator. Half of what I asked about was editted out...kind of sicks to be sensored for not even using profanity - so much for the freedom of free speech i guess.

Yea, any actual detailed questions about this book will probably have to be asked outside of this forum because for some reason it hits a bad note with some people...

Personally, I'd love to get a copy of it, sounds like a great book. The only problem was the discussion of copying and possible copyright infringements in that other thread. Ken, our webmaster and the owner of this site, has to very careful of such things, especially in our sue-happy society and his moderators must back him up in his policies. If I have to take a little flak now and then for doing so, oh well, that's just part of the job.

BTW, I wasn't the one who edited the OP's first post in this thread, so I have no way of knowing what was originally said. It had already been done before I first saw it, but I may very well have done the same thing.

Well it sounds like ranger man has seen a copy...I'll keep my eyes out and I guess I'll stay clear of this Ken guy.

There's one on eBay. Let's see how bad someone wants it. That's unbelievable!
