The photos in this edition are black and white. There comes a time in every automobile's life when the engine just doesn't perform as it should anymore. It may be burning oil, it may be leaking, the compression may be so low that it only starts on cold days, or maybe it just isn't very efficient anymore. When all of this happens, you have to decide whether to just dump the car and replace it, or add some new life to your old car by rebuilding the engine. Rebuilding the engine in any used car, much less a classic, seems like a much more attractive option when you can save a lot of money by doing it yourself. Sometimes the savings are the difference between keeping your car or letting it go. If you want to keep you car running strong and lasting for years, this is the book for you. A part of CarTech's Workbench Series, "How to Rebuild Any Automotive Engine" covers the basics of any engine rebuild in more than 400 photos of step-by-step instruction. Subjects covered include preparation and tool requirements, engine removal, engine disassembly, machine work and clean-up, short-block assembly, final engine assembly, installation, start-up, and break in. Also visited are the options of purchasing crate engines, remanufactured engines, and performance upgrades. This book applies to all cars on the road that feature an internal combustion engine. Spend a little on this book and save hundreds of dollars down the road.

Here’s a look at what’s inside the book: When it comes to rebuilding an engine, having the right tools and equipment is essential. Whether you are a seasoned mechanic or a novice enthusiast, investing in quality tools will make the process smoother and more efficient. In this subchapter, we will explore the various tools and equipment needed for engine rebuilding, ensuring that readers of all ages and backgrounds can embark on this rewarding journey. 1. Engine Stand: An engine stand is a must-have for any engine rebuilding project. It provides stability and allows easy access to all sides of the engine. Make sure to choose a stand that is sturdy and can handle the weight of your engine. 2. Socket Set: A comprehensive socket set is indispensable for removing bolts and nuts of various sizes during the disassembly and reassembly phases. Invest in a high-quality set that includes both standard and metric sizes. 3. Torque Wrench: A torque wrench is crucial for achieving proper torque specifications when tightening bolts. This helps prevent damage to the engine components and ensures a reliable and long-lasting rebuild. 4. Engine Hoist: If you plan to remove the engine from the vehicle, an engine hoist is necessary for lifting and positioning the engine safely. Choose a hoist with a sufficient weight capacity to handle your engine’s size. 5. Engine Cleaning Tools: Cleaning the engine thoroughly is vital before rebuilding. Invest in a good engine degreaser, wire brushes, and various cleaning tools for removing grime, carbon deposits, and old gasket material. 6. Micrometer and Dial Indicator: These precision measuring tools are essential for checking engine components’ dimensions and tolerances. They are particularly useful during the machining and assembly stages.

This book provides a reference point for the development of Building Information Modelling (BIM) maturity in the developing country context. Developing countries have been observed to have low BIM maturity and are struggling to adopt the technology amidst no clearly defined pathways for achieving BIM capability maturity. The research presented in this book provides construction industry stakeholders in developing countries with a framework and nomological map to aid in the advancement of BIM implementation. This work provides a pathway for overcoming the challenges inhibiting BIM maturity in developing countries and ultimately its diffusion in order to harness the benefits. The authors provide critical theoretical insights on BIM maturity in the developing country context, a comparative analysis of BIM maturity in both developing and developed countries, and finally, a conceptualisation of BIM maturity for developing countries. The book is unique as its construct is rooted in the state-of-the-art information management standards in the digitalisation era in the construction industry (ISO 19650). The book delivers a theoretical reference point to the academic and research community and for the industry stakeholder, an essential guide to achieving BIM maturity at macro and micro levels.
