Reading list / book list

Hello all,
I’m starting my Stage II project. It is going to take me I’d say 2 – 4 years to have the car back at the track. I would like to do as much as I can myself. The reason for posting as the topic states is I’d like to have a reading list of books and articles to read. I recently finished my degree in Mechanical Engineering at U of MD at College Park. Therefore, I’d like to know the theory and the hands on. A book on the process of building this type of project, as in a sequence, would be GREAT. I had a post about a year ago talking about combustion and chemical properties i.e. octant rating. I wish I could find the post and the name of the book. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Best regards,
Jason

Posting the ISBN # would be VERY helpful.

Thanks,

Does any one know if there are any good books out there about CAM selection, with if possible a focus on forced induction engines?

Thanks,
Jay
