I still thik this is a great book.
A shop manual i think might be too technical for some ppl.
This is where this book is great since it explains basic engine components and
Gives a breakdown of some common swaps.

Plus i have noticed that MANY and most frequesntly asked quesations that are asked by many newcomers to the honda scene can be answered by this book.

Overall i think it is a great book for noobs and for ppl who just want to learn more about there honda.
Then later on they can move onto a shop manual if they choose to.

This should be stickied on here and required reading for anyone just starting out in the Honda hobby!

I would also recommend "How To Tune And Modify Engine Management Systems." It's a great book that starts off by going into the basics of the operations of fuel injected and computer controlled engines. Startup conditions, sensor parameters for operation, etc. It gives a great idea of how all the sensors work together in making the engine operate properly. Then it goes into different types of popular EMS systems...great read.
