SKU:  

Availability:   Usually ships in 1 business days
 

The format couldn't be clearer. Each test describes the part, its claims, a brief technical write-up and the actual results. Cappint it all off are real dyno generated graphs, showing exactly what gains, and where were acheved against the baseline. Before you drop your hard-earned money on the metal, shell it out for a book that tells you what's worth the green. -Hemmings Muscle Machines, May 2006 --Hemmings Muscle Machines, May 2006

5Excellent readage from 4.6/5.4 Ford Horsepower  Apr 28, 2008
I have read Building 4.6/5.4L Ford Horsepower several times, have purchased the PI heads, Ford intake manifold and related equipment based on the confirmation and dyno tests this authority cites. HIGHLY recommend the book to Ford builders. DEK

4For Car Owners, Not Truck Owner  Apr 20, 2008
This was a great book in so many ways, the caveat being it's geared towards muscle cars and not trucks. The 3-V 5.4L engines used in trucks are are barely mentioned and there isn't a single test of them in the book. Unfortunately, that was my focus of research. I learned a great deal about the Ford modular engines in general and even stuff that would apply to the 5.4L truck engine... but, overall, I found the book more of a "dessert" than a "main course." Had I been a car guy, the reverse would have been true. Viewed in context, there is a great deal of worthwhile information in Holdener's book... especially if you need information on the various supercharger and turbocharger kits out there. The book is laid out well and the material is presented in an easy-to-digest format.

5Excellent book  Dec 13, 2007
If you want to know what parts work or don't work for your modular Ford, this book is a must read. Richard Holdener is a very detailed and thorough individual who tells you like it is. Every product test is completely described as to all the components used on the test motor and the procedures followed. His comments are excellent and informative and he provides complete dyno charts for each test, not just peak values. To see how the motors respond throughout the rev range is invaluable. Reading this book has already saved me hundreds of dollars that I would have spent on parts that would not have met my expectations. If you are going to modify your modular Ford, you need this book.

5building 4.6/5.4l for horsepower on the dyno  Nov 19, 2007
this product is perfect for anyone with an unlimited budget who want to know what what combination of superchargers; turbochargers; headers; intake; nitrous; cams; aftermarket heads and stroker kits make most horsepower on a vastly modified engine with aftermarket everything. very good for anyone with about $10,000 to sink into their engine. i found it as useful tool to tell me all about what parts will help a 4v cobra run low 9s in the quarter. not so good for anyone that wants to know what few parts to put in thier daily driven mustang/thunderbird with the most bang for the buck.

5Building 4.6/5.4l Ford Horsepower on the Dyno  Sep 02, 2007
Very good book!!! This book will save you thousands of dollars in purchases that didn't need to be made because their HP contributions were inconsequential.

The author gives laboratory quality before and after dyno tests of virtually everything the magazines encourage you to buy because it provides "X Horsepower increase over ____". The difference is the dyno doesn't have any marketing hype attached to the numbers and when you see the numbers there is a great many supposedly "must have" products that in the end are really don't waste your money products.

Can't say enough good things about this one. For less than $20 you will save probably thousands of dollars and make hundreds of additional horsepower. This one is a must have!
