In the acknowledgements at the beginning of Mr William's book he thanks PJ Stephens. I've always assumed that this is a reference to the block "relief" diagrams which Mr Stephens showed in his book "Building and Racing My "750"'. Mr Stephens says that he gained this information from the classic "How to Hop Up Ford and Mercury V8 Engines" written by Roger Huntington and published by Floyd Clymer - which is, I think, still in print.
Another well known author, JH Haynes, has a diagram for block relief in his (I suppose) first book "How to Build Austin Specials".
