Performance Tuning the Sunbeam Tiger (Paperback): Gordon Chittenden Performance Tuning the Sunbeam Tiger (Paperback)
Gordon Chittenden
R1,137 Discovery Miles 11 370 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

One of a very few books that is specific to the Sunbeam Tiger. While the original title may have inadvertently mislead the reader into thinking that this was just another "How To Modify Your Ford 260/289 V8," this book goes way beyond the engine. It covers all possible areas of modification including the induction system, clutch, transmission, differential, suspension, wheels, tires, custom accessories, camshafts, Holley carburetors, speedometer correction, factory options, special part numbers, torque specifications, wiring diagram and a complete set of flat rate tables. It discusses SCCA, NHRA and AHRA modifications and includes a 40-page "step-by-step" photo section with 77 illustrations. The ultimate Sunbeam Tiger reference that has been out-of-print and unavailable for many years, this book is highly sought after on the secondary market. A "must-have" book for any Tiger enthusiast or owner, or anyone contemplating the purchase or restoration of a Tiger. A reproduction of the original 1967 publication.

The styling of Ford's muscle and pony cars of the 1960s and 1970s is amazing, but their performance in some areas just isn't up to date. So what do you do if you want the classic look of a vintage Mustang, Cougar, or Gran Torino, but the power, handling, and drivability of a modern performance car? Build a high-performance Ford Restomod A Restomod means making your vintage Ford perform with state-of-the-art modern technology. How to Build Ford Restomod Street Machines shows you how to modify your vintage Ford to accelerate, stop, corner, and ride as good as - if not better than - Detroit's best new high-performance cars. Don't subject your classic Ford to a life of garage time, trailer rides, outdated factory-original performance, and the occasional Sunday cruise - build it to run hard. Author Tony Huntimer uses over 300 black and white photos to show you how to upgrade your engine, drivetrain, chassis, suspension, body, and interior to make your ride a stand-out performer using factory and aftermarket parts. He even covers many Ford-specific upgrades, including the Granada brake swap and the popular Shelby Mod.
