Camaro Performance Handbook/Performance Modifications for 1982-1992 Camaros

Rating:
Summary: Not the best Book on 82-92 Camaro Performance
Review: A much better book is the Motorbooks on 82-98 Camaro performance modifications. Although years other than the third gen are covered, the book focuses mainly on 82-92 Camaros. Depending on your need (hard street, autocross, drag racing, or road racing) the book explains what you should modify. Also the book gives good explanations of what the stock part does and why the aftermarket upgrade is needed.

Summary: Very Comprehensive, Best F-body Book Available
Review: Found out that the author was a former editor of All Chevy and Super Chevy magazines, not just a Camaro enthusiast. The information is VERY detailed, including camshaft recomendations that are NOT generic. The chapter on PROM chips and performance tuning is very helpful in properly tuning TPI equipped F-body Camaros. The car on the cover is well known in the serious '82-92 Camaro community. I also enjoyed the chapter on stereo upgrades. This type of information can only come from someone who has actually done the work.

Rating:
Summary: Not as good as I expected
Review: The book has very basic information, just giving explainations of how the car's systems work. It does a good job of explaining the differences between stock and aftermarket parts. But, if you are looking for serious modifications and step-by-step procedures you will be disappointed.
