What are some good books to get to explain the geometry of suspension like 3-4 link, Torque arm design and others but in layman terms? Thanks

Herb Adams "Chassis Engineering" is a good start.

Marks book "how to make your muscle car handle" is available on amazon and is by far written by one if the sharpest sincere individuals I've interacted with over the past 10 years. A must read.

Tune To Win by Carroll Smith is a great book but VERY dry and not a starter book.

Mark Savitske's book is a great start and probably the only one dedicated to muscle cars. Buy it here: http://www.amazon.com/Make-Your-Musc.../dp/1934709077

We also carry this handy Carroll Smith flip book which fits in a pocket or glove box. It's like the FAQ of chassis tuning. $16 shipped.https://www.cachassisworks.com/p-279...ing-guide.aspx
