SA Design How to Rebuild and Modify Chevy 348/409 Engines

Guidance in this book, How to Rebuild and Modify Chevy 348/409 Engines, will allow you to select the right cam for a high-performance aftermarket package and a cam that won't overpower a stock engine's valve train. In addition, building a large displacement stock engine of 427 in. or aftermarket block to go to 509 in. is covered. Veteran magazine writer and author John Carollo provides insightful instruction for rebuilding a stock engine and how to build a sound performance W-engine as well. The reader is shown how to select a strong clean block, free of core shift and fatal cracks, select the best heads for a particular build, and increase the compression ratio. Selecting a camshaft and a strong connecting rod and piston combination is also an important aspect of the engine build, and all options are examined. From mild to wild, from stock to modified, this book covers everything you need to know about the legendary 348/409 engines—so pickup your copy and get building!
