Anyone have or read this? Is it a good source for info? I'm wanting to do a 331 build in the future.

It's ok, covers high level stuff. Worth buying as a reference. If you are looking for step-by-step I suggest our tech article on a 331 build:

I agree, good reference book. I've got it.

But, as with any book there are a couple of things I would question in it. Nothing major though.

It' just repetitive info from his other book, "How to Max Perfor on a budget" book, with general theory on why/how stroking an engine creates torque, which is info you can get on FM tech dept. I ordered it, and was very disappointed in the content. If it is going to be the only Ford build book in your library, buy it.
