Book Description
Edmund Basseni is a small business owner, a body shop guy who pieces together the parts of car engines and their housings, motor and chassis. And he is also a hired assasin, a mechanic who does jobs as easily and flawlessly as he puts together a 383 hemi into a collectible Dodge. Vinnie, as he is called by friend and foe alike, has a problem. He has suffered a severe wound to his forearm, which leads to the hands and fingers that do the terrible job of “whacking” a wrong doer.After the accident he must piece his life together again and make it right; and in Vinnie’s world morality is a very important issue. There is justice and retribution and a code of honor that drives this good fellow to commit murder and mayhem. After an extensive period of rehab and strengthening, the shattered Vinnie is determined to pick up his weapon of choice, A Browning pistol, and return to the glory and privilege of his former world. He is also not exactly an outsider. As an an insider and operative in the shady world of finance and extortion, he owes people and is obliged to do their biddings. If he is ready; and Vinnie is in the process of getting ready. Bored with the tedium of reconstructing cars, he meets a very hot and sweet, but “married to the mob” young lady named Elizabeth. This slowly and inexorably develops into a “relationship” for them, but in the process of getting involved with Elizabeth, Vinnie meets and greets women in various places—forest, city and bar—and has some very steamy, and somewhat psychotic, sexual encounters. Vinnie and Alan conspire in a plot that is recreated about four times. Each job is a work of art, and that is Vinnie’s approach to his work. There is an interesting dynamic to their friendship, since they’re kind of bonded in the blood and iron of their work—organized criminal activity that is ruthless and business like, with violence and violent language a big part of their argot. Finally, the job is completed , and Vinnie, in the final scene in the novel, realizes a fractured dream of completion that is simply a continuation of the bizarre life he cannot seem to extricate himself from, no matter how hard he tries.

Book Description
If there is one thing Ford enthusiasts have learned over the years, deciphering which Ford parts work with which Ford engines is a far more difficult task than with many other engine families. Will Cleveland heads fit on my Windsor block? Can I build a stroker motor with factory parts? Can I gain compression by using older-model cylinder heads, and will it restrict flow? Is there a difference between Windsor 2-barrel and 4-barrel heads? These are just a few examples of common questions Ford fans have. These and many other questions are examined in this all-new update of a perennial best seller. Thoroughly researched and, unlike previous editions, now focused entirely on the small-block Windsor and Cleveland engine families, Ford Small Block Engine Parts Interchange includes critical information on Ford’s greatest small-block engines and goes into great detail on the highly desirable high-performance hardware produced throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. By combining some of the best parts from various years, some great performance potential can be unlocked in ways Ford never offered to the general public. Following the advice in Ford Small-Block Engine Parts Interchange, these engine combinations can become reality. You will find valuable information on cranks, blocks, heads, cams, intakes, rods, pistons, and even accessories to guide you through your project. Author George Reid has once again done extensive research to accurately deliver a thorough and complete collection of Ford small-block information in this newly revised edition. Knowing what internal factory engine parts can be used across the wide range of production Ford power plants is invaluable to the hot rodder and swap meet/eBay shopper. Whether building a stroker Cleveland or a hopped-up Windsor, this book is an essential guide.

Book Description
The critical parts of a heavy duty engine are theoretically designed for infinite life without mechanical fatigue failure. Yet the life of an engine is in reality determined by wear of the critical parts. Even if an engine is designed and built to have normal wear life, abnormal wear takes place either due to special working conditions or increased loading. Understanding abnormal and normal wear enables the engineer to control the external conditions leading to premature wear, or to design the critical parts that have longer wear life and hence lower costs. The literature on wear phenomenon related to engines is scattered in numerous periodicals and books. For the first time, Lakshminarayanan and Nayak bring the tribological aspects of different critical engine components together in one volume, covering key components like the liner, piston, rings, valve, valve train and bearings, with methods to identify and quantify wear. The first book to combine solutions to critical component wear in one volume Presents real world case studies with suitable mathematical models for earth movers, power generators, and sea going vessels Includes material from researchers at Schaeffer Manufacturing (USA), Tekniker (Spain), Fuchs (Germany), BAM (Germany), Kirloskar Oil Engines Ltd (India) and Tarabusi (Spain) Wear simulations and calculations included in the appendices Instructor presentations slides with book figures available from the companion site Critical Component Wear in Heavy Duty Engines is aimed at postgraduates in automotive engineering, engine design, tribology, combustion and practitioners involved in engine R&D for applications such as commercial vehicles, cars, stationary engines (for generators, pumps, etc.), boats and ships. This book is also a key reference for senior undergraduates looking to move onto advanced study in the above topics, consultants and product mangers in industry, as well as engineers involved in design of furnaces, gas turbines, and rocket combustion.

Book Description
This books consists of a replica of two vintage catalogs from the Lima Locomotive Works. The first shows Lima's line of Shay locomotives circa 1921. The second is a spare parts catalog with maintenance information. Featuring descriptive text and photos, this book is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in the age of steam. In 1877, Ephraim Shay came up with a radical design for a logging locomotive that featured a side- mounted set of cylinders. These drove drive shafts, which powered the wheels of both the locomotive and tender. This ¿geared locomotive¿ offered a distinct advantage, in that the entire weight of the engine developed tractive effort. The Lima Locomotive Works of Lima, Ohio, produced the first Shay in 1880. Less than a decade later, the company was producing five different types of Shays, and shipping them throughout the world. The last Shay was built in 1945. Lima produced its last steam engine in 1949, and merged with Baldwin in 1951.
