3.0 out of 5 stars Valuable insights into cylinder head modification, November 10, 2000
The basic principles of cylinder head modification is outlined in this classic book by Vizard, first published in 1971. The book covers equipment, modifications to valves, guides and seats, port shapes, head machining operations, CR calculation, chamber balancing and reshaping methods. Other useful information on port and combustion chamber design, valve sizes, springs and spark plugs is also included. A useful appendix has chamber shapes for various British cars. A very useful book for beginners although it is somewhat dated and limited to British cars like the Mini, Ford 105E and crossflow, Rootes, Triumph and Hillman Imp.

4.0 out of 5 stars by far the best on head jobs, June 11, 2000
By 
jay kazmi (united states) - See all my reviews
this is by far the best book/manual on head modifications. i've used it to produce approx. 350 hp out of a 225 hp stock, and that is a significant change. ( ) END
