If this is the same book I have, it is excellent. I has the same title, but the cover picture is a little different.

It's going to be hard to do better than the factory as far as gas mileage though.

Yes the EFI 460 would be EEC-IV.

I've seen those books but I don't think they specifically cover the 460. It's mainly car and 1/2 ton truck systems. Very informative though.
