The photos in this edition are black and white. Once the limits of
a naturally aspirated engine are achieved in terms of horsepower
and reliability, there's only one more way to maximize horsepower
potential: forced induction. There are two options for realistic
forced induction, a turbocharger or a supercharger. While there is
considerable debate over which is better, both offer exponential
gains over any standard modification on a normally aspirated
engine.
"Street Supercharging," from industry veteran Pat Ganahl, has
been the guidebook for supercharging fans for years. As time and
technology march on, updates are required to keep things current,
and that's exactly what this new, all-color edition of Street
Supercharging does. It covers blower basics, blower background and
history, a tutorial on how blowers work, information on used
superchargers and their practicality, chapters on the different
styles of superchargers, like the traditional roots style blowers
vs. the emerging centrifugal styles, blower installation, how to
build your engine to handle the demands of a blower application,
and information on tweaking factory blower systems.

The big-block Chevrolet engine is legendary. Making its debut in
Chevrolet production cars in earnest in 1965, it quickly became one
of the most respected and feared performance engines on the street.
Even the two-barrel station wagon and pickup-truck engines are
sought after today for swaps and performance builds. This, combined
with an active crate-motor program by General Motors with
displacements of up to 572 cubic inches, makes big-block Chevy
engines the kings of the street. There comes a time in every
engine's life when the engine just doesn't perform as it should
anymore. It even happens to legendary engines like the big-block
Chevrolet. Rebuilding the engine in any used car, much less a
classic Chevy, seems like a much more attractive option when you
can save a lot of money by doing it yourself. How to Rebuild the
Big-Block Chevrolet covers the best techniques for rebuilding
classic Chevy big blocks with more than 450 color photos and
step-by-step instruction. Subjects covered include the history of
the big-block Chevy, preparation and tool requirements, engine
removal and teardown, first inspection, parts, machine work and
clean-up, final engine assembly, and start-up. This Workbench
Series book is essential not only for enthusiasts looking to
rebuild their big-block Chevy, but as a guide for building
high-performance engines as well. The photos in this edition are
black and white.
Original Morris Minor is the essential companion to these
delightful cars. Its aim is to reveal, in words and color
photographs, how the many versions of the Minor - from early
'low-headlamp' 918cc saloon to late 1098cc traveler - altered in
detail through the course of production. An amazing number of
specification changes, large and small, occurred over the years.
The completely authentic specification which the most discerning
enthusiasts now demand can be elusive because so many Minors have
been altered over the years, often by impecunious owners trying
simply to keep aging cars on the road for minimum cost. But help is
at hand in Original Morris Minor for all owners, restorers and
enthusiasts who want a bible on originality. Drawing from factory
production records, parts lists and catalogs, as well as the
accumulated knowledge of respected restorers and dedicated
enthusiasts, this book provides the most exhaustive production
survey of the Morris Minor ever published. Accompanying the
authoritative text are over 250 specially commissioned color
photographs showing every permutation of Morris Minor specification
in remarkable detail.

Since its introduction in 1965, the big-block Chevy engine has been
a force to be reckoned with on both the street and track. Over the
past four decades, the big-block has undergone a constant evolution
toward greater efficiency and durability. It's also picked up more
displacement, as General Motors is now offering crate engines up to
572 ci, and aftermarket versions have gone much larger still.
In "How to Build Killer Big-Block Chevy Engines," author Tom
Dufur reviews the commonly available factory parts along with many
aftermarket offerings, and discusses the advantages of both.

dyno results, proving theories and sharing in-depth research.

the critical points of these great engines.

potential. Whether your big-block is destined for life in a street

book will ensure it has ample power and longevity once it's all
together.

At one time, if you wanted big horsepower in your Mopar muscle car
or truck, your choices were limited to a big-block swap or a
coveted Hemi. At the very least, you needed different engine
mounts, K-members, transmissions, headers, etc. -- and Hemis have
never been cheap But now there's another way to get more
horsepower: boring and stroking your Mopar small-block to get more
cubic inches - up to 476 cubes The small-block Mopar is one of the
easiest engines in which to increase displacement without extensive
modifications or specialized machine work -- the engine was
practically designed for more cubes This book shows you how to get
that big-cube power, and then it shows you how to optimize the
small-block's other systems -- induction, heads, valvetrain,
ignition, exhaust, and more -- to make the most of the extra cubic
inches.Author Jim Szilagyi is a Performance Specialist for Dodge
Motorsports and Mopar Performance Parts. In this book he covers
building big-inchers from Mopar 318/340/360-ci LA or Magnum
5.2/5.9-liter engines, using both factory and aftermarket parts. If
you want to make big power from your Mopar small-block, this is the
book for you. The photos in this edition are black and white.

Have you been dreaming about a little extra displacement for your
Ford? By increasing the bore and stroke of your current engine, you
can add those cubic inches without the hassle of switching to a big
block. George Reid thoroughly explains the concept of building a
stroker, paying special attention to the effect that increasing the
bore and stroke have on the engine as a whole. With this
information, you'll be better able to tailor your heads, cam,
intake manifold, carburetor, and exhaust system to get the most out
of the extra cubes. Also included is a complete guide to factory
head and block castings, as well as aftermarket block and head
guides, so you can choose exactly the right parts for your project.
This book is the definitive guide for building a big-inch Ford
small block, complete with four engine buildups ranging from 331 to
408 cubic inches.
