What an excellent reference! I bought this book specifically looking for info on the 351M that I have in my LTD. I was pleasantly suprised to see how much time and effort the book spent on each of the different Ford Engine families to include the 351/400M, a much overlooked Ford powerplant that was installed in countless trucks and fullsize vehicles. I was also very happy to see good info to help determine if an engine needs to rebuilt or not. All around great book, a keeper.

Impressed with this book even at my advanced years. Excellent information and PRACTICAL guidelines on rebuilding 351C, 351M, 400M, 429 and 460 engines. Generally I dislike these types of books because they tell you to use this special too or that special tool but this book teaches you how to use what you've got to get the job done. It does try to show you what things to not try yourself without a machine shop and that is fair enough but most of the rebuilding tips are for the shade tree type guy and are fair game. Good job Tom, this book will remain on my bookshelf for a long long time.

The book "Ford V8 Engines" is full of helpful information on rebuilding Ford engines. As a first time rebuilder, I was not exactly sure what procedures to follow in order to be successful. The Information within the book is easy to understand and is thorough. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in rebuilding Engines.

This book is about rebuilding 351c,m,400m, 429 and 460 motors. It is not a how to hot rod book. It is a detailed how to take it apart and put it back together right book. The author show with fairly good pictures the normal short coming of other overhauls and steers the reader on how to avoid these. I enjoyed reading this book and will keep it for reference if nothing else.

(Hide Review...)  Wrong years & outdated
Reviewer Permalink
I purchased this thinking it would work for my 90 Bronco, but it is for older engines. Beware of this book it is outdated for newer engines.

I am in the process of returning it, and boy is that a hassel in it's self.

This is a great book for anyone wishing to rebuild any of the engines this book covers.I used it years ago when I built my first 460.It is easy to read and understand.I would also recommend "THE STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO ENGINE BLUEPRINTING" by Rick Voegelin.

(Hide Review...)  Straight forward with a sense of humour; easy to understand
Reviewer Permalink
Be aware: this book does not cover the 360/390 Ford Engines (so I'm troubled that your title heading states:"covers all makes & models")...

This book is written at a very easy-to-follow pace.

(Hide Review...)  One of the best how-to books written.
Reviewer Permalink
Engine rebuilding is only as good as your attention to detail, and this book walks you through your rebuild step by step. I have owned my copy of this book almost twelve years, and I consider it one of the best automotive books I have. Do not try to rebuild a Ford V-8 without this book by your side. I have rebuilt over 70 engines and I still find it useful.
