Just finished my first book: How to Build and Modify 2011-2014 Mustangs. A friend mentioned that I should post it here, so here goes! All kidding aside, there's a wide range of information in this book, covering basics to advanced theory...especially with regard to brakes and suspension. You can get it on Amazon, or order an autographed copy from my website. Here's a few photos of the content as an example. Happy to answer any questions you may have!

This looks like a great read for anyone that is getting started or even "intermediate" skill in S197s, and Wes takes amazing photographs to supplement everything.

Just looking through these photos, this looks really cool. Great photographic evidence and good read-ups. I'm pretty in tune with modifying these cars but I ordered one anyway, I'll probably learn a whole bunch! Can't wait.
GREAT! Did you get it on Amazon? I didn't see an order come through via my website, so I want to make sure...!

Yes I did! Too hard to pass up the 1-day Prime shipping. The funds from the sale still go to you, right?
Kinda. In general, the more books that are sold, the better, but I make a few bucks off of autographed copies on my website. If the first production run of books is sold, then I make a little of the *next* production run. But that's a lot of books! :) It's all good, though.
 
Got my copy a few hours ago. Gotta say, I didn't know that Cyclone had so much exhaust valve lift. Even Chevy folks will be jealous. Will this end up being one of those highly sought after rare misprint editions like double-die coins? :p

Hell yeah! Isn't four inches what they mean by 400 lift? LOL! I'll fix that for the next edition.
