Thre have been some terrific threads addressing some of the topics I mentioned below since I contacted Richard about a new edition a few months ago. He was most gracious in his response and hope he is not offended that I reprint it:----------------------------------------------------------------
There's a market for such a book but it's a very small market. Publishers simply aren't interested at this point.
I do believe that it can be done in a digital format though. I can do it on my own web site and Corvette Central wants to carry those things on their site.
I think it will work but we're just not sure of the topics we want to cover at this point.
I'm glad you've found the book useful.
Richard

When I first got my Vette, it was among the first things I bought (beside the FSM) and it has been an invaluable tool over the years. Just wondering if you have ever considered another edition? Topics like replacing valve springs to LT4, installing hot cams, swapping rears (ok, that might take 3 chapters), replacing the opti (in greater detail), porting and polishing for bigger throttle bodies, etc. Basically the stuff that gets discussed/asked on here over and over. I know there's a market for it. Anyway, just wanted to let you know I am one of many fans.
