GM's muscle cars of the '60s and '70s were great for their time - but what they did best was go in a straight line. Today's performance cars have it all though - speed, handling, and comfort. This book shows you how to build a Pro-Touring machine: a classic muscle car that accelerates, stops, corners, and rides like Detroit's best new high-performance cars. 
Author Tony E. Huntimer goes through a car's major systems - drivetrain, chassis, suspension, body, and interior - and shows you how to upgrade that classic muscle car to make it a modern performer. Electronic fuel injection, 6-speed trannies, better shocks and springs, modern seating and instruments, and subtle body mods are all covered, along with step-by-step how-to sequences on many key modifications. Classic muscle car looks, with modern muscle car performance - that's what Pro-Touring is all about!

The styling of Ford's muscle and pony cars of the 1960s and 1970s is amazing, but their performance in some areas just isn't up to date. So what do you do if you want the classic look of a vintage Mustang, Cougar, or Gran Torino, but the power, handling, and drivability of a modern performance car? Build a high-performance Ford Restomod! 
How to Build Ford Restomod Street Machines shows you how to modify your vintage Ford to accelerate, stop, corner, and ride as good as if not better than Detroit's best new high-performance cars. Don't subject your classic Ford to a life of garage time, trailer rides, outdated factory- original performance, and the occasional Sunday cruise - build it to run hard. 
Author Tony Huntimer uses over 300 photos to show you how to upgrade your engine, drivetrain, chassis, suspension, body, and interior to make your ride a stand-out performer using factory and aftermarket parts. He even covers many Ford-specific upgrades, including the Granada brake swap and the popular Shelby Mod.

The Mark IV Chevrolet big-block, made from 1965 to 1976, produced legendary performance and is one of the greatest big-blocks of all time. This design was a giant performance leap ahead of the old Chevy wedge big-block. The Mark IV featured canted valves, large intake ports, and an efficient head design for vastly increased air/fuel flow, better combustion, and huge horsepower. With a big-block under the hood, the Camaro, Chevelle, Corvette, and other Chevys became some of the most desirable ultra-high-performance cars of all time. How to Rebuild the Big-Block Chevrolet covers the best techniques for rebuilding the renowned 366-, 396-, 402-, 427-, and 454-ci big-block engines. 
With exceptional clarity and insightful detail, this book explains engine removal, disassembly, parts inspection, selection of machine work, initial and final assembly, tuning, and break-in. 
Through 500 photos and extremely detailed instruction, each step-by-step procedure explains professional techniques for rebuilding these engines. In addition, high-performance upgrades are covered as well as torque specs for major components, setting cylinder firing order, main bearing cap torque sequence, and much more. This volume provides an unparalleled level of information for rebuilding a big-block Chevy, so your rebuild project is hassle-free and successful.

The big-block Chevrolet engine is legendary. Making its debut in Chevrolet production cars in earnest in 1965, it quickly became one of the most respected and feared performance engines on the street. Even the two-barrel station wagon and pickup-truck engines are sought after today for swaps and performance builds. This, combined with an active crate-motor program by General Motors with displacements of up to 572 cubic inches, makes big-block Chevy engines the kings of the street. There comes a time in every engine's life when the engine just doesn't perform as it should anymore. It even happens to legendary engines like the big-block Chevrolet. Rebuilding the engine in any used car, much less a classic Chevy, seems like a much more attractive option when you can save a lot of money by doing it yourself. How to Rebuild the Big-Block Chevrolet covers the best techniques for rebuilding classic Chevy big blocks with more than 450 color photos and step-by-step instruction. Subjects covered include the history of the big-block Chevy, preparation and tool requirements, engine removal and teardown, first inspection, parts, machine work and clean-up, final engine assembly, and start-up. This Workbench Series book is essential not only for enthusiasts looking to rebuild their big-block Chevy, but as a guide for building high-performance engines as well.
