"Carburetor Tuning for Soccer Moms -- An 'I CAN READ' Book".

You're right in that there are books out there dedicated solely to carburetor tuning and modifying, performance engine building, etc. I keep trying to make my way thru Fred Puhn's "How to Make Your Car Handle" but it always gives me a headache. Deep stuff.

I could see there being a market for a book on how to assemble the whole deal... engine requirements, transmission, convertor if AT, clutch if MT, rear-end ratio, wheels and tires, brakes, suspension, chassis modifications... maybe specific to a particular vehicle and / or range of applications (drag race, autocross, performance road car, etc.) If you write it I will buy it.
