I have so many engineering and automotive texts, here are a few of my favs:
Local author who knows his stuff, his other books are good too.
Carroll Smith is a legendary race engineer who helped Alan Moffat back in the day. All his titles are great!
Nice little book with some great info and pics of the fantastic F1 turbo engines.
Some detailed analysis of the best engines of all time.
Picked this one up at a car show recently, its newly published... nice summary of skylines.
