Book Reviews of How to Build & Modify Chevrolet Big Block V-8 Engines (Motorbooks Powertech Series)

Book Review: Rebuttal to Dan Zabetakis
Summary: 5 Stars

I am the author of this book and regardless of how you rate this book, I want it to be known that I DID NOT plagarize any of the content, as Mr. Zabetakis implies. If he would have read the foreword to this book, he may have realized that I worked with leading engine builders and suppliers across this great country of ours.

I worked extremely hard developing the content of this book, as did all my subject matter experts, including Scott Shafiroff of Scott Shafiroff Racing Engines, John Lukovich of Lukovich Racing Engines, Dr. Rick Roberts, Director of Engineering at Edelbrock, John Levis of Wiseco Pistons, Mike Vendetto of Moroso Performance, Joey Lunati of Lunati Cams, and a host of other experts that were very generous of their time and knowledge.

If some of the content affirmed what was printed in other books on hot-rodding big block Chevys, so be it. Most of these things help set the foundation for the reader so they could better understand and appreciate all the new developments and refinements that our beloved big-block Chevy has gone through, all of which were communicated and illustrated in this book.

I hope this sets the record straight, and that you have as much fun building your big-block Chevys, as did I.

Sincerely,

Tom Currao
