I have a 1995 LT1 in my Firebird, that I rebuilt, and so I wanted to learn more about the valvetrains and camshafts. As David Vizards says, ask 5 people what canshaft you should get and you will probably get 5 different answers. There is a lot to learn from this book, and I love David's approach, of let me try it and see what the results are. There are so many variables involved from what you want to end up with to how you intake, heads and exhaust all flow. David trys to help you sort it all out, but I have not been able to really get my brain wrapped around this subject yet. Not this books fault, just a lot for me to learn.

It appeared that this book was copied and printed on a copier...not high quality. My son was somewhat disappointed when I gave it to him.

David Vizard is one author that I buy whatever he writes because he is that good! If he says I should know it, I believe him. He covers things that de-mystify this often mis-understood area of hot rodding that you must know to go faster! Some things contradict "popular knowledge" or common myths and he tells you why. This man knows his craft. This is the one area that can have a HUGE impact on your overall engine performance and you had better understand the ins and out of valve-trains and camshafts. This book will teach you!

A little dated by today's standards but everything still applies and it's extremely informative. I've read it several times just to absorb all of the knowledge that's packed into this book. Highly recommended.

A really good reference book one with lots of information. However, if you find working with math a problem and equations aren't your thing, then this might not be the book for you.
