 Great book for 3rd gen FBody beginners.
Great book for 3rd gen FBody beginners.Camaro Performance Handbook (Performance modifications for 1982-1992 Camaros)
Enjoyable Read
It's great for beginners! The book goes over just about every changing aspect of the Camaro from 82-92. I learned a lot about my car while reading this book. The book mentions a lot of manufactures for parts, tho you may want to do your own research. There are a lot of good suggestions to start modifying you car.
 An Excellent How-To Manual
I found David Shelby's Camaro book to be an excellent tool for upgrading and modifying my 1990 Camaro Z-28. The articles are extremely detailed and although some may be out of my price range, it has given me additional ideas on how to upgrade my car. I also have the book by Jason Scott and it is good too, but Shelby's book is obviously written from hands-on experience.
 Not as good as I expected
The book has very basic information, just giving explainations of how the car's systems work. It does a good job of explaining the differences between stock and aftermarket parts. But, if you are looking for serious modifications and step-by-step procedures you will be disappointed.
Very Comprehensive, Best F-body Book Available
Found out that the author was a former editor of All Chevy and Super Chevy magazines, not just a Camaro enthusiast. The information is VERY detailed, including camshaft recomendations that are NOT generic. The chapter on PROM chips and performance tuning is very helpful in properly tuning TPI equipped F-body Camaros. The car on the cover is well known in the serious '82-92 Camaro community. I also enjoyed the chapter on stereo upgrades. This type of information can only come from someone who has actually done the work.
