For those who follow diesel performance, Gale Banks needs no introduction. He is a pioneer in the diesel and turbo performance arena, and Gale Banks Engineering is a leading manufacturer of high-end and cutting-edge performance parts. Banks has also had his hand in marine performance, up to and including building engines for US military vehicles and navy watercraft; he is a leader in diesel performance, including holding speed run records at Bonneville; and he has set records for fastest quarter-mile times in a diesel pickup truck and has held several records in other categories. Gale is also an engineer and a teacher. He has taught engine design to graduate students at General Motors Institute, covering many subjects, including engine architecture, turbochargers (design and application), fuel systems, exhaust systems, marine turbocharging, ignitions and camshafts, intercooling, and more. In Gale Banks's Diesel Performance, veteran author Steve Temple covers all aspects of Banks's knowledge in performance diesel applications. Included will be a look at defining diesel performance, how diesel differs from other fuels, the importance of airflow, a complete overview of forced induction, data acquisition and testing, minimizing backpressure, traditional performance upgrades, and finally, popular do-it-yourself installs and engine swaps. There is probably no name more well known in diesel performance than Gale Banks, and this book shares with enthusiasts all the knowledge that Banks has accumulated over the years.

Download or read book Diesel Performance Handbook for Pickups and SUVs written by Ben Watson and published by . This book was released on with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With gas prices rising (always), alternative fuels look like an answer. Hybrids sound good, but what about the batteries? And fuel cells still seem to be pie-in-the-sky. Which leaves us with good old diesel. This book shows how to get the most out of the diesel engine, at a time when its fuel efficiency is almost as important as its massive torque. Although most diesel truck owners probably aren’t planning to break any land speed records, advances in diesel technology, such as ultra-low-sulfur fuel, high-pressure common-rail fuel injection, electronic fuel management and variable geometry turbocharging, are bringing diesel engines into the performance arena. And this book is the ideal guide for making your diesel engine perform--adapting intake and exhaust, torque converters, engine electronics, turbochargers, and much more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The photos in this edition are black and white. Skylarks, GSXs, Grand Nationals, Rivieras, Gran Sports; the list of formidable performance Buicks is impressive. From the torque monsters of the 1960s to the high-flying Turbo models of the '80s, Buicks have a unique place in performance history. During the 1960s, when word of the mountains of torque supplied by the big-inch Buicks hit the street, nobody wanted to mess with them. Later, big-inch Buicks and the Hemi Chryslers went at it hammer and tongs in stock drag shootouts and in the pages of the popular musclecar magazines of the day. The wars between the Turbo Buicks and Mustang GTs in the 1980s were also legendary, as both cars responded so well to modifications. How to Build Max-Performance Buick Engines is the first performance engine book ever published on the Buick family of engines. This book covers everything from the Nailheads of the '50s and early '60s, to the later evolutions of the Buick V-8 through the '60s and '70s, through to the turbo V-6 models of the '70s and '80s. Veteran magazine writer and Buick owner Jefferson Bryant supplies the most up-to-date information on heads, blocks, cams, rotating assemblies, interchangeability, and oiling-system improvements and modifications, along with details on the best performance options available, avenues for aftermarket support, and so much more. Finally, the Buick camp gets the information they have been waiting for, and it's all right here in How to Build Max-Performance Buick Engines.
