Looking for a good SBC engine builders book.

What is the best book out there for building small block chevy motors for power, geared more toward carburated applications. If it covers fuel injection that would be fine too. Something technical that goes into theory and how to tweak your motor for the most power and tuning tecniques. If also covered assembly instructions and torques specs that would be cool too. Just an all around good book "bible" for small block chevys. Thanks!

I was just going to sucgest the very same two...very good books. the lingenfelter book goes more over theory and power building tips and the how to rebuild your small block chevy book is a book based on a complete tear down and rebuild of a small block chevy.
