Description: MUCH MORE than just "rocker arms." This is the definitive COMPLETE Race Engine Encyclopedia of CAM DESIGN, INDUCTION SYSTEMS, CYLINDER HEADS and much more are covered in separate chapters with an emphasis on their integration with CAM selection and the HEAD's flow criteria for selecting the optimum valve lift; regardless if FLAT TAPPET, HYDRAULIC, SOLID ROLLER or HYDRAULIC ROLLER; it's all covered. This CONNECTS the key engine systems, INDUCTION and VALVE TRAIN together with what applies to the other, and what doesn't. How to not "over cam" or "over port" heads; or why CC volume in cylinder heads mean nothing to the real performance of a head, and many other myth dispelling facts that can save you thousands of dollars "getting it right" the first time. Racing is a BUSINESS. Learn how to separate the HYPE from the FACTS without going broke; learn the terms to use, the specs to shoot for, and how to figure out what is properly made FOR you in the USA, versus JUNK from CHINA. MID-LIFT Advanced Rocker Arm Tech -- is the Pro Engine Builder's ULTIMATE and LAST word on precision rocker arm design and valve-train integration with the cylinder heads of any OHV engine, and any brand of rocker system! PUBLISHED MARCH 2016 in Paperback, this is the original PAPERBACK EDITION, of 180 pages (8"x10") in full color that covers everything you need to know on ROLLER ROCKER ARM DESIGN and INSTALLATION on both stud mount and stand mount systems, and dispels the myths of what correct roller rocker arm GEOMETRY really is. (To download sample pages, Google "MID-LIFT Rocker Arms" or "Jim Miller Rockers" to get the web site, we can't publish here.) Over 230 TERMS & DEFINITIONS with expanded tech is also included in this one of a kind publication, with many novel tips on engine preparation and parts selection earned from over 40 years of hands-on experience in cylinder head and valve-train development for some of the biggest names in racing, from Bob Glidden to the top NASCAR teams. As part of the chapter on The History of MID-LIFT, also included are key pages from the Professional Engine Builder ("PEB") Brochure; never before published, that was used to illustrate MID-LIFT geometry to some of the best teams in NASCAR Jim consulted for between 1996 and 2001. It's no accident that NASCAR teams use MID-LIFT geometry; and it's no accident why they make their own rocker arms today. The advanced cam development programs of top NASCAR teams is integral to the MID-LIFT precision geometry first revealed in the PEB, and protected by confidential agreements with Jim Miller, until now! Above images are a small sample with detailed text, and explanations to proper valve train design and application, with many tips on comprehensive integration with cams and heads. RETAIL IS $87.50; BUT FOR A LIMITED TIME ON eBay, you can buy it for 20% off, PLUS GET FREE SHIPPING (Domestic U.S., contiguous 48 states only; International upon quoted shipping; estimated delivery is 5 to 10 business days.) NOTE: This is NOT for "tuning" and it is NOT for "ECU" management. This is as the TITLE states, "VALVE TRAIN" and ROCKER ARM GEOMETRY for OVERHEAD VALVE (OHV) ENGINES, PLUS all the necessary information to integrate the INDUCTION system and much more. It is the perfect compliment for SERIOUS engine builders who are PROFESSIONALS or aspire to be, for understanding confusing misused and abused crossover terms. A perfect compliment to any archive of other technical manuals on naturally aspirated induction systems or any OHV engine where valve train geometry, cam selection and cylinder head science crosses paths. IF YOU ARE SERIOUS ABOUT BUILDING ENGINES, and THINK YOU GOT IT ALL TOGETHER but don't have this book... THINK AGAIN! Every TOP name in the business, from manufacturers to engine builders, OWNS THIS BOOK, even if they say they don't (pride)!
