Default Request for Hi-Po Book Titles

Maybe the fine people on this site can help me out. I am in search of books that deal specifically with performance build-ups of FE engines, 390s to be more specific. I have had some folks suggest the How to Rebuild Your Big Block Ford as a guide. I've read the book and am re-reading it to gain a better perspective of the FE engines. What I'm looking for is a book that deals with certain specifics like what to look out for when installing aftermarket Dove/Earson/Harland Sharp rocker arms and shafts. What issues are there with roller cam bearings, what modifications need to be performed on an engine block that will be part of a 600HP+ engine, stud girdles for the bottom end. I have a pretty fair amount of engine building experience just not with FE's. I also have about 10,000 different questions to ask as I don't want to blow up a $15,000 engine and I'm sure some of the people here get tired of seeing the same questions again and again, that's the reason for looking for some books on the topics mentioned above. Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
Greg
