When the '96 Mustang came out with the 4.6-liter V-8, some
performance enthusiasts were scared away by its technology. But
those days are long gone. Ford added horsepower and torque to its
2- and 4-valve V-8s over the years, and the number and quality of
available aftermarket performance parts has exploded. Ford took
things to the next level with the new 3-valve Mustang GT engine,
the 5.4-liter GT and the Shelby GT500, adding even more
high-performance options. In this updated edition of How To Build
Max-Performance 4.6-Liter Ford Engines, Sean Hyland gives you a
comprehensive guide to building and modifying Ford's 2-, 3-, and
4-valve 4.6- and 5.4-liter engines. You will learn everything from
block selection and crankshaft prep, to cylinder head and intake
manifold modifications. He also outlines eight recommended power
packages and provides you with a step-by-step buildup of a
naturally aspirated 405-horsepower Cobra engine. This is the
definitive guide to getting the most from your 4.6- and 5.4-liter
Ford.

sports car ever created? Can't afford the tens and tens of
thousands of pounds to go and buy a superb example, or have one
professionally restored? The alternative is to restore one
yourself. Can it be done? Is it even possible and practical to
restore or work on one yourself at home, or will it all end in
tears, and be an expensive, depressing mistake? This book can help
bring the dream to reality. This is the story of how one man did
it, how he completely restored his beloved E-type Jaguar,
transforming it from a complete wreck into a gorgeous and usable
example of the most iconic sports car of all time. Drama teacher,
Chris Rooke, has had no engineering training but his uniquely
candid approach to the subject is both instructive and fun. In
these pages, he freely admits his many mistakes so that others can
avoid them, while giving masses of practical advice that could only
be written by someone tackling the challenge for the first time.
This hard-hitting book is copiously illustrated throughout with
over 550 colour photos. Chris' camera was always to hand as he
worked, and this has allowed him to illustrate many aspects of the
work, the pitfalls and the solutions. A down-to-earth enthusiast
through and through, Chris' passion, honesty and determination are
inspirational. He overcame every challenge and helps the reader do
the same.
A step-by-step guide to DIY air suspension for your road car.
Manufacturers like Mercedes, Tesla, Audi and Cadillac choose air
suspension because they can achieve the highest quality in ride and
handling, but until now, there hasn't been a book that shows you
how to get the best from aftermarket air suspension for your road
car. This book covers both theory and practice - from the technical
advantages of air suspension through to detailed coverage of the
development, installation and tuning of a custom air suspension
system. It looks at wiring and plumbing, covers a brilliant new low
cost electronic air suspension controller, and even shows how to
source low-cost components from cars originally sold with air
suspension. Want to buy an air suspension kit off the shelf? That's
covered as well, with the six key questions to ask before buying.
Whether you're after the best ride and handling, or simply like
being able to raise or lower your car at the turn of a knob, this
book will show you how to do it.
