Often,
wiring and electrical work intimidates automotive do-it-yourselfers
the most. It's not mechanical, and therefore, it's unfamiliar
territory. Electrons are invisible, and they can do unpredictable
things in an untrained enthusiast's eyes. Finally, there is an
enthusiast's guide that takes the mysteries and misunderstandings out
of automotive electrical design, modification, diagnostics, and
repair.
Automotive Wiring and Electrical Systems is the perfect book to unshroud the mysteries of automotive electrics and electronic systems. The basics of electrical principles, including voltage, amperage, resistance, and Ohm's Law, are revealed in clear and concise detail, so the enthusiast understands what these mean in the construction and repair of automotive electrical circuits. All the tools and the proper equipment required for automotive electrical tasks are covered. In addition, this in-depth guide explains how to perform more complex tasks, such as adding new circuits, installing aftermarket electronics, repairing existing circuits, building your own wiring harness, and troubleshooting. Author Tony Candela explains how to complete popular wiring projects, such as adding late-model electronic accessories and convenience items to earlier-model cars, installing relays, designing and assembling multi-function circuits and harnesses, and much more.
With this book in hand, you will be able to assemble, design, and build single- and multi-function circuits and harnesses, troubleshoot and repair existing circuits, and install aftermarket systems and electronics. Automotive Wiring and Electrical Systems is your essential guide for wiring a hot rod from scratch, modifying muscle car electrical circuits for cooling fans and/or power windows, or adding a premium stereo and other conveniences to modern performance cars.

automotive service, plus the soft skills and tool knowledge that must
also be taught. Because many automotive systems are
intertwined, presenting all systems together in one text makes it
easier for the student to see how they are all connected.
Topics are divided into 133 short chapters, which makes it easier for
instructors and students to learn and master the content.

This
work has been a labor of love. It is meant to compliment and broaden
the working knowledge of the modern automotive technician. No
theoretical information is given, except under certain explanatory
circumstances and sections. This book is totally based on actual
working conditions and real life diagnostics. With that intent,
special thanks are given to Mr. Gino Ferrulli for his incredible
patience and understanding. This book, including waveform captures
and photographs would have been impossible to acquire and assemble
without his help. My gratitude to him and his family for putting up
with me throughout the almost three years that took to make the book.
Special thanks are also given to Ms. Maria Ferrulli and Ms. Caroline
Torres for their invaluable help in amending and correcting the
information contained here. I couldn’t have done it without their
help. And last, but not least, thanks to my family for their support
and encouragement. I really needed it at times. The family is the
basis for all societies. But most of all, this book was done for you,
“The Lone Automotive Mechanic or Technician”. The guy (or girl in
some cases) who works all day long and studies at night to further
his/her career in spite of the stress of the day, the guy who’s not
appreciated for what he does because to the rest of the world he’s
the dirty mechanic that doesn’t know better, the guy who spends
thousands of dollars in tools and equipment but that nobody has any
idea that he did, and the guy who in spite of all the drawbacks of
our profession is happy at what he does and keeps America rolling.
This work was done for you. I hope you enjoy and learn from it.
Remember, no matter what happens keep building your knowledge and
it’ll pay-off in the end. Edition 4.0, Copyright 2004, 2011, All

Foreword
by Jim McFarland.
All the parts within any engine are designed and engineered using the appropriate mathematics to function efficiently and be durable. When discussing high-performance automotive engines, a specific set of math formulas are used to develop and design powerplants to make more power at higher rpm levels and still survive. The various forms of motorsport and street use all have different requirements, but the math used to design engines to be competitive does not change, regardless of the specific discipline.
Multi-time author and well-regarded performance engine builder/designer John Baechtel has assembled the relevant mathematics and packaged it all together in a book designed for automotive enthusiasts. This book walks readers through the complete engine, showcasing the methodology required to define each specific parameter, and how to translate the engineering math to hard measurements reflected in various engine parts. Designing the engine to work as a system of related components is no small task, but the ease with which Baechtel escorts the reader through the process makes this book perfect for both the budding engine enthusiast and the professional builder.
Author Baechtel's experience and writing capabilities shine in Performance Automotive Engine Math, and this book will surely be a strong addition to any high performance library.

In
2006, a small unavailing university auto racing team began building a
racecar that would challenge the best engineering schools in the
world. With fewer people and resources than any of the top
competitors, the only way they were going to win was to push the
limit, go for broke, and hope for more than a little luck. By the
time they got to the racetrack, they knew: In the fog of fierce
competition, whether you win or lose, you learn the hardest lessons
about engineering, teamwork, friendship, and yourself. (promote to
all Chinese universities)

Series: S-A
Design Workbench Series
There
are varying levels of automotive skill sets among the automotive
enthusiast community. Some people can perform minor maintenance, some
can perform major engine overhauls, and some can perform minor paint
and detailing work. But to truly round out your skills in mechanical
and body or chassis repair and restoration, sooner or later you will
run into a project that requires welding. Once you have mastered
welding, there is very little left that you can't do.
Automotive Welding: A Practical Guide is just the book to get you there. Other welding books vary quite a bit on focus and detail. This book fills the gaps, making it a practical book packed with useful information on the types of projects that a self-trained welder can complete and that a typical automotive enthusiast would want to undertake.
Covers the kinds of welding and metalworking available or commonly used, the tools required to perform welding tasks, the different types of welders available, basic welding techniques, grinding and cutting, various forms of sheetmetal work, frame repair and reinforcement, filling body holes and rust repair, tube-steel projects, and more.
With restoration and repair work costing a small fortune these days for frame, floor pan, and structural body repair, Automotive Welding: A Practical Guide can save you hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on your repair or restoration project. If you have a pending restoration project, are considering tackling or acquiring a new project, want to restore a muscle car, build a hot rod or a rat rod on a budget, or simply want to improve your automotive skills, Automotive Welding: A Practical Guide will pay for itself many times over. No shop library would be complete without it!
