The key to power is how to properly manage airflow throughout the motor, from the moment it hits the intake, to the exhaust. With this practical guide, written by airflow expert Harold Bettes, you will understand the ins and outs of engine airflow with real-world performance applications. From horsepower to internal combustion engine operation. How to test engine components to how a flow bench works to modifications and much more, this easy-to-understand guide will give you valuable information you will be able to use. Hundreds of sharp photos, charts and diagrams make Engine Airflow a must-own book!
