and service data.
The two decades between 1945 and 1965 saw some remarkable motor
cars emerge from the new Rolls-Royce factory at Crewe. The Mark VI
Bentley was the first model to be built entirely by Rolls-Royce,
using a body supplied by Pressed Steel, although coachbuilt cars
were still available. The Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn version followed
in 1949, this and its Bentley sister both receiving 'big boot'
bodies in 1952. Meanwhile the 120mph Continental appeared. The
entirely new Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud and Bentley S-series, almost
identical to each other, arrived in 1955, and from 1959 a V8 was
installed. By their side, coachbuilt S-series Continentals
continued. Original Rolls-Royce & Bentley 1946-65 is the
essential companion to these cars. The aim of this book is to
reveal, in words and color photographs, how the various models
altered through the course of production. Drawing on factory
records, parts lists, catalogs and other data, the author has
provided a meticulous survey of the standard steel cars built at
Crewe. Over 250 specially commissioned color photographs, showing
the detail changes to these cars, accompany the authoritative text.
This is a maintenance and repair manual for the DIY mechanic.

engines, the various kinds of aftermarket performance parts
available, and describes how these parts perform on the dyno. Each
chapter contains numerous color photos and back-to-back dyno tests

The 4.6- and 5.4-liter modular Ford engines are finally catching up
with the legendary 5.0L in terms of aftermarket support and
performance parts availability. Having a lot of parts to choose
from is great for the enthusiast, but it can also make it harder to
figure out what parts and modifications will work best. Building
4.6/5.4L Ford Horsepower on the Dyno takes the guesswork out of
modification and parts selection by showing you the types of
horsepower and torque gains expected by each modification. Author
Richard Holdener uses over 340 photos and 185 back-to-back dyno
graphs to show you which parts increase horsepower and torque, and
which parts don't deliver on their promises. Unlike sources that
only give you peak numbers and gains, Building 4.6/5.4L Ford
Horsepower on the Dyno includes complete before-and-after dyno
graphs, so you can see where in the RPM range these parts make (or
lose) the most horsepower and torque. Holdener covers upgrades for
2-, 3-, and 4-valve modular engines, with chapters on throttle
bodies and inlet elbows, intake manifolds, cylinder heads,
camshafts, nitrous oxide, supercharging, turbocharging, headers,
exhaust systems, and complete engine buildups.

Jeep CJ! If engine, transmission, transfer case, axle, steering,
electrical or metal restoration seem difficult or beyond your
sills, here is the fix! Jeep expert, automotive instructor and

transfer case, axles, steering system, electrical system or body
tub has seemed just beyond your skill level, here is the fix! Moses
Ludel, Jeep vehicle expert, automotive instructor and author of the
"Jeep Owner's Bible, demystifies the most complex service
procedures. At his Camp Jeep workshops, Moses discovered that
hobbyists and professional Jeep vehicle mechanics alike want
heavily illustrated, step-by-step 'how-to' manuals. For the Jeep
vehicle owner who finds the typical workshop manual impossible to
decipher, Moses Ludel breaks ground with this book. The author and
photographer/illustrator of more than 2,500 magazine tech articles
and five popular "Owner's Bible books, Moses undertook the "Jeep CJ
Rebuilder's Manual to meet the needs of Jeep vehicle owners and
restorers. Using a pictorial, step-by-step format, this ambitious
