Ok, here are some more advanced car books in my "library". Carroll Smith goes more for the pure race cars, but a lot of the details can be applied to any car. Besides, he was good at explaining. Carroll Smith's Nuts, Bolts and Fasteners and Plumbing Handbook Engineer to Win: The Essential Guide to Racing Car Materials Technology or How to Build Winners Which Don't Break Tune to Win Drive to Win: The Essential Guide to Race Driving |
