Amongst others, he has worked on drag racing and endurance engines, and built motors for Oval Racing, WRC and the Mille Millia. He is now based in Britain with his family, and is a World-Wide representative for a high-speed diesel manufacturer. He has served a City and Guilds apprenticeship and has a BA in English.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe purpose of writing this book has been to bring together information that may be useful to people who want to improve the performance of their engines. For some makes of engine a reasonable body of facts-and-figures is in the public domain and yet for others, it is patchy or non-existent. It is hoped that this book's data adds to\u003cbr\u003e that which is already available, and also is of use to vehicle owners who have little printed guidance. The book is not engine specific. It deals with some of the engineering problems that may be encountered when building any high performance 4-stroke engine. It tries to explain from a hands-on perspective what to look for and why, and then suggests the best course of action.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo help illustrate specific problems, a few anecdotes have been included. The material has been organised to explain how to strip and inspect, repair and modify, and build and test a performance engine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNick Swager Woodbridge, Suffolk\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eDescription\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers all 4-stroke engines.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLearn how to make 4-stroke engines more powerful, reliable, and smoother running.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFull of proven modifications and assembly techniques, many in print for the first time, used by the author and associates in over thirty years of motorsport.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThis book has something for you; no matter whether you're restoring a period motor, building a modern race engine, or are merely an armchair enthusiast.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEasy-to-follow text, with over 200 photographs and drawings, plus inspection sheets, and supplier addresses.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOther Details\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublisher Code:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781845842970\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 10:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 13:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781845842970\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublished:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e2010\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e205x250mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePages:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e128\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eIllustrations:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eSoft Bound, Colour ill\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eBarcode:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781845842970\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Veloce Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47627997446364,"sku":"9781845842970","price":135.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/b19483b_secrets_of_speed__43588.1339460505.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772089579","url":"https:\/\/automotobookshop.com.au\/products\/secrets-of-speed-todays-techniques-for-4-stroke-engine-blueprinting-and-tuning","provider":"Automoto Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
