Default Need recommendation for 5.0L Eng perform ref book for 1993 LX

I am new to the Mustang fold... I bought a 1993 notchback 5.0L and I love it! It is bone stock and in very good condition. I would sure appreciate if one of your more experienced stangers out there could help me. I am looking for an excellent performance reference book for a 1993 Mustang 5.0L. I would like to build the entire engine. I would prefer to build it as a performance EFI for now. In the future I think that I would enjoy building a 351W as a stand in the same fashion. Finally, it would probably be good to have a general all around maintenance book as well. I look forward to any recommendations. Thanks in advance...

I f you need to find out what parts to use, i would look to the Internet for proven packages.
heads ,cam, intake, injector size, fuel delivery, mass air, block strength, and heads . You can look in mustang magazines to get an idea of the cost of parts. and what other people are using. Jegs racing is another store to buy parts from. Anderson ford could help you out with the cold air intake.
A Chilton manual for all the specific torque recommendations, and tolerances.
A little extra research for more specific problems you may have on the build could be found in this forum. call them at downford.com talk to motorsports for technical support. Good luck hope that helps a litlle. keep us posted.
Before you buy all the parts ask some more questions on the forum for opinions.
