as we all do. I want to beef up my motor and not sure where to start. I've been looking for the "How do build a chevy small block" and i'm having trouble finding it locally. Any ideas?

 

amazon.com ,,,, the book store "borders"

 

no no.. i meant as where to start on my engine.

 

is it an original 28 yr old engine??? I'd start thinking about the piston bores/walls & new bearings. I'd do compression, leak down , & vacuum tests first to see if it needs freshening/ boring. then go from there.
If you dont want to tear it apart, & just drive it,,,,, You've already go the cam and carb, get an intake. For more money some new heads
