With the introduction of the Twin-Cam engine, Tim Remus saw the need for a book addressing hop-up and repair procedures for both the new engine and the older Evolution motor. His new book covers both factory and aftermarket engines and hop-up options. The development histories of the two engines are included, as well as discussions concerning how to approach modifications. Of course, the book also includes step-by-step instructions for various installation, repair, and modification tasks. A great selection for any V-Twin fan!

Something for the TC88 owner, too!,
By
This review is from: American V-Twin Engine: Evo & Twin Cam--Hop-up and Repair (Paperback)
I was pleased to see that the Twin Cam owner is finally getting some material for maintaining and modifying his bike, too. While much of the literature written for Evolution engines is also applicable to the Twin Cam, there are enough differences (e.g., camshafts) to warrant separate treatment. Bravo for including enough specifics on the Twin Cam to make it stand out from the crowd!This is a well-written and information-packed book which is sure to be of interest to anyone wanting to understand the workings of the Evolution or Twin Cam engine of their Harley-Davidson motorcycle. And, for someone like me who wants to actually do most of the work myself, you make it all that much more feasible. I feel this is certainly a worthwhile, long-term addition to my Harley library.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent companion to the HD shop manual,

This review is from: American V-Twin Engine: Evo & Twin Cam--Hop-up and Repair (Paperback)
Being new to the Harley-Davidson Twin Cam 88 engine. I was looking for something to supplement the factory service manual, and answer some question that the shop manual had left me scratching my head about. This book was it. It got me deep inside the engine, and showed me from the flywheel out every working part and assembly. Within 33 pages I had a firm grasp of the internal engine workings, and I was ready to plunge into the performance upgrade sections that followed. The comparisons between the EVO and TC 88 are also discussed, and an overview of engineering changes to the Twin Cam were covered as well. If you are looking for a great book to get your understanding of the HD Twin Cam 88 engine on the fast track. Then look no further....
