How To Build a Harley-Davidson Torque Monster (Motorbooks Workshop)

ReviewMidnight Sun Rider, Spring 2007 “If you read this book and apply the information it contains you will save many times over the cost of the book.”Daily Telegraph (NZ), July 1, 2007 “It is a detailed technical guide to getting the most out of your bike.”

Many people modify their Harley-Davidson engines—and find the results disappointing. What they might not know—and what this book teaches—is that emphasizing horsepower over torque, the usual approach, makes for a difficult ride. Author Bill Rook has spent decades perfecting the art of building torque-monster V-twin Harley engines.

    I’ve been riding and wrenching on HDs for over twenty years and I still found this book useful. It confirmed a lot of opinions I had on building a “street” motor and it gave me new information in other areas. I found that the chapters on camshafts, intake, and exhaust were some of the best I’ve read and expanded my knowledge of these areas.

    If you are into HD motors, you should have this on your bookshelf.

    Bill Rooks’s book is a great resource for anyone who works on Harley Davidsons or would like to. As an amature mechanic, I learned a lot from this book. Top end and head work are covered extensively, as well as carburetor selection and tuning. Rook stresses the importance of designing a total package for achieving specific performance goals rather than simply bolting on expensive parts. Rook’s careful, simple, yet detailed descriptive writing style makes sense, and will allow anyone with a basic understanding of internal combustion engines to grow in their knowledge and tackle the project or modifying a stock Harley Davidson for performance gains. I highly reccomend this book.
