book review

Post by fest »

just got a copy of

Ferrari: Guide to Performance
By: Allen Bishop
Motorbooks: 1987

found it to be a good read (so far)
with lots of cool photos

some V8 stuff
but focus is V12s
of 'our' vintage

covers a lot of the same stuff
we been talkin bout right here:
Carb Rebuild
Valve Adjustment
Distributors, etc.
etc.

lots of advice
most of it sound
(some I disagree with)

spotted a few (albeit annoying) typos
and some pics are out of sequence

but
all in all
highly recommended
**** 1/2 (stars)

hey, good pics of any Ferrari V12
(let alone MY type)
especially Undressed(!!!)
is worth the price of admission

http://www.svbooks.com
is where I got mine
about $ 20
(used but excellent)

Veloce Press (http://www.velocepress.com) has reprinted this book. Evidently they don't sell directly any more as the link for that book takes you to Amazon.com. The price there is $34.95.
