Customer Reviews
- six cylinder performance
- Avg. Customer Rating: 4 Stars
- This book does a good job of reviewing ways to increase the performance of the six cylinder engines. Good book over-all. I would have liked some more information about the earlier versions of the engines.
- in-line 6 Cylinder Book for Aficionado's
- Avg. Customer Rating: 5 Stars
- This is the best book about in-line 6 cylinders that I have read. Gives very specific directions for all aspects of an engine build from selection of block to whether or not to silicone seal a gasket both sides, no side or one side (in which case he specifies whether to have silicone on the block side or the part side)!

- Where was this when I was 16 with my version of a hopped up Chev 235? Now I want another one! Could use more technical and current resources for "inliners" to chew on. What there is, is invaluable. Found stuff in here I never thought possible. I hope some of the car magazine editors find this and do some current research and publishing. With the current price of fuel, maybe it is a 6's time to reassert itself and find new and practical application.
- Good Book

- I was looking for a simple rebuild manual for this series of GM I6 motors. Since this is the only thing close that's available, I bought it. I'm only restoring my engine, but if you want to hot rod your motor, this has some great info and tips. Even if you're like me and only interested in restoration, it's better to overshoot when it comes to knowledge.
- Great How to Book
- Avg. Customer Rating: 5 Stars
- This book is hands down the best book I have read about the Chevrolet 6cyl. It gives very in depth explinations of how to achieve excellent power and/or performance out of your 6cyl.
