LS Gen III Engine Wiring Systems: 1997-2007

Automotive enthusiasts who've followed hot-rodding trends over the last decade know that GM's LS-series engine is the most popular swap on the market. Similar to the first-generation small-block Chevy engines that were swapped into Model A Fords back in the day, these swaps are arguably just as popular. While kits and the aftermarket help with the logistics and the placement of hardware (such as motor mounts, oil pans, and headers), the area that remains a mystery to most is how to wire and electronically control your swapped LS project. In "LS Gen III Engine Wiring Systems: 1997-2007" from SA Design, expert Mike Noonan helps demystify the entire complicated process. Extensively covered are terms and tools of the trade, advice on quality connections, detailed coverage of all the engine control modules offered, drive-by-wire systems, harness connectors, and cruise-control systems. Also covered in-depth are air-conditioning systems, cooling-system fan operation, transmission interfaces and connectivity, and control-module programming (tuning) for standalone operation. Featuring wiring diagrams and computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) artwork—as well as an appendix with real-world projects and examples—this 192-page guide covers all the bases. Whether you're performing a simple swap that utilizes only the basics, a more complex project with all the bells and whistles, or simply want a working knowledge of how these systems work, the guide will be a valuable resource for years to come. It contains 267 color photos and 80 wiring diagrams.

How to Build and Modify Dodge Challenger and Charger 2006-2014

The new Dodge Charger, Challenger, and other LX-platform cars bring modern V-8 performance to unparalleled heights—and the new Challenger and Charger Hellcats are the most powerful American production cars today. The outrageous performance and audacious styling have earned a large and dedicated following. However, you can tune and modify the Chrysler 300, Dodge Magnum, Charger, and Challenger for more performance; and for many owners, fast is not fast enough. In the pursuit of a higher performing LX-platform car, former Mopar Muscle editor Randy Bolig has created this book, "How to Build and Modify Dodge Challenger and Charger 2006-2014," from SA Design and CarTech, to show you how to extract ultimate performance from these cars. Chrysler has built more than one million Chargers, Challengers, and other full-size-platform cars, starting with the Dodge Magnum and Chrysler 300. These cars offer competent handling, braking, and suspension performance, but they can be made much better through a set of targeted upgrades using better aftermarket equipment. Bolig gives you a comprehensive guide to the cars and engines. He details the features, benefits, and drawbacks of each package or set of upgrades, so you select the best modification for your car, application, and budget. He also covers basic to extreme modifications for the R/T and SRT8 models with the 5.7-, 6.1-, and 6.4-liter Hemi engines. Guidance for installing heads, rotating assemblies, ignition upgrades, higher-performance injectors, and many other parts are provided. But this book doesn't just discuss performance; it shows you how to do it with comprehensive, step-by-step product installs for a cat-back exhaust system, hand-held ignition tuner, cold-air intake, and supercharger. If you've been searching for the best performance package to make your Charger, Challenger, or full-size Chrysler car stand out from the crowd, you need this 176-paperback with over 400 photos. It has the latest information, so you can learn how to install all the products and get your car back out on the road.

Vintage Volkswagen Beetle Accessories

Take a fun and nostalgic look at the world of Volkswagen accessories. It's well documented that the VW Beetle is the best-selling vehicle of all time. In 1972, the 15-millionth Beetle was produced, breaking the record set by the Model T about 40 years earlier. It was a simple design with styling that appealed to the masses. The Bug was affordable, practical, and fun. Because it was such a simple car and so many were sold, many people enjoy customizing their model with accessories, which has been a large market for these cars dating back to the 1950s and '60s. There's even a market today for people who collect these accessories without installing them. In SA Design's "Vintage Volkswagen Beetle Accessories," authored by veteran VW historian Stephan Szantai, a whole range of accessories are covered. Of course, a history of the Beetle is detailed, as well as the companies that formed the accessory aftermarket. Included are accessories for dressing up the exterior of the car, such as vented windows, bumpers and guards, turn-signal technology, add-on lighting, mirrors, etc. Then, interior accessories are examined, such as radios, ashtrays, gloveboxes, gauges, and clocks. No accessories book would be complete without engine accessories, covering both dress-up options and functional performance parts. Travel accessories, such as roof racks, coolers, extended gas tanks, tail racks, and coffee makers are detailed, along with wheels. A gallery of accessorized Volkswagens of all types is featured, including Type 2 Buses; Type 3 squarebacks, fastbacks, and coupes; Karmen Ghias—and even single- and double-cab pickup body styles are included. Join the fun and nostalgic romp through VW accessory history with this new 144-page softcover CarTech title that features everything cool about customizing your VW. Includes 317 color photos.

Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT Performance Modifications

Learn your modification options for the most modern and exciting Jeeps! Going back to World War II, Jeeps have had a special place in America's heart. The utility vehicle that helped win the war transitioned into the civilian Jeep, or CJ, and the Jeep brand has had several owners over the years. While still remaining wildly popular, it has evolved. The Wrangler version of the Jeep was transformed with the release of the JK for the 2007 model year. With a more practical 4-door version, this Wrangler became a popular vehicle for year-round use, which appealed to off-roaders as well as soccer moms. For the 2017 model year, Jeep seriously upgraded the Wrangler, which is now dubbed the JL, and added an exciting new model, the Gladiator, or JT, which is essentially a pickup version of the Wrangler. In "Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT: Performance Modifications," Jeep experts Don Alexander and Quinn Thomas introduce you to these new models and walk you through the capabilities and options for all of the trim levels. Then, they examine how to make these things better, system by system. Suspension, steering, and brakes are covered, as they are the heart of any off-road rig. Also examined are modification options for axles, driveshafts, and differentials—as well as bumpers, armor, and protection. Of course, off-roaders need a quality winch, recovery gear, and upgraded electrics, so options are explored here, as well. Wheels and tires are also very important for those leaving paved roads, and upgrade options for all of the trim levels and lift levels are covered thoroughly. Whether you want to build a JL or JT to be a serious rock crawler or simply look like you're going off-road, all of your options are thoroughly explained in this 160-page paperback, which includes 461 color photos. Add a copy to your Jeep reference library.
