About

Founded in 1993, CarTech Inc., an American family-owned business, has become the leading publisher of how-to automotive titles for the hardcore enthusiast. In 1995, CarTech purchased the S-A Design line of books from Larry Schreib and Larry Atherton, who had contracted their first book in 1975 titled The Chevrolet Racing Engine by Bill “Grumpy” Jenkins. Printed in 1976, this single title gained wide recognition as “the bible” of high-performance engine design and assembly. CarTech has continued to expand on this tradition and now has more than 350 titles available for the enthusiast in print and digital forms. Today, our publishing efforts include our traditional performance, rebuilding, and restoration “S-A Design” titles along with race histories and biographies of industry icons.

CarTech is a company run by enthusiasts . . . for enthusiasts. No matter what the trends, from Pro Street to Pro Touring, from tire-shredding big-blocks to high-revving electronically controlled turbo mills, CarTech will be there to cover it.
