How to Build Max-Performance 4.6-Liter Ford Engines

Obviously, Sean Hyland has done a bunch of mod motors and R&D over the years. The review of different heads and intakes is nice, and seems spot on. How to modify intakes seemed a little vauge, but not bad. There's a few combos in the back of the book that probably would help some guys get an idea of what to build. There's a good source of info about superchargers! There's some engine build-up stuff in there, and lots of pictures, but I thought he could have been a bit more specific about actually building the engine step by step. I liked the parts where he told about past failures, and what he learned from them. I also liked his description and instructions for head porting. He doesn't explain how to do it as much as he does what to do. With a little existing knowledge about porting, you'll be able to gain from this. Overall, I thought the book was really decent and worth buying.

Almost new condition book. Quick shipping.

Plenty of detail on building 4.6 2v and 3v engines. Lists products that I didn’t know existed and offers tips and advice for building an engine to meet your goals. Goes over heads, gaskets, blocks, rotating assemblies, valves, manifolds, pistons, strengths and weaknesses, and much more. I took a highlighter to mine and will probably read it another time before I start working on my engine.

Doesn’t really tell how to build, more of a parts list

Sean has left no stone unturned in this book. He goes through such great detail in every aspect of the build process. You won't need another book on 4.6 or 5.4 engines. Whether you are new to rebuilding or not I highly recommend this book.

Easy read. Well written. Informative. The writer knows his stuff. Read it cover to cover.

Basic knowledge, no big revelations here.

what a great book for someone looking to build a 4.6 motor, I have a Thunderbird with a 4.6 and This is going to help a lot,,, strongly suggest!

Well written comprehensive and informative -recommended.

tres bien fait

Leider wird der 3V Modular Motor zu wenig behandelt. Wer allerdings einen 2V oder älteren 4V aufbauen möchte, kann sich gute Tips holen. Letztendlich für den Hobbyschrauber nicht unbedingt nötig.

Very helpful and we writing

Great book with good information on the 4.6. I would have given it a 5 if it was updated. I would really like to see an updated version with the new parts available after 2008. Additional updated info on heads and cams would be awesome.
