Build Horsepower in Any Engine - How to Search for Hidden Power - Dyno Proven

This book gives you an inside look at the techniques expert engine builder David Vizard uses to build horsepower in engines from 4 cylinders to big-block V-8s. With over 40 years of experience in tracking down the subtle factors that add up to big power improvements, David explains how you can get these same results in your workshop. This book covers major engine components, including: the short block, cylinder heads, camshafts, induction, carburetion, ignition, headers, and exhaust systems. Get the most from any engine with this clearly-written book.

The production of power is covered from the air entering the intake all the way to spent gasses leaving through the exhaust. The book explains how to optimize all the components in between, such as selecting heads for maximum flow or port heads for superior power output, ideal valvetrain components, realizing the ideal rocker arm ratios for a particular application, secrets for selecting the best cam, and giving unique insight into all facets of cam performance. In addition, he covers how to select and set up superchargers, nitrous oxide, ignition, and other vital aspects of high-performance engine building.
