So I've got a PDF document of this, the 1965 edition. If people are interested in it I could make it available somewhere, it's 20MB or so.
Is it still considered particularly relevant now? Not that the sort of engines I'm interested in are particularly advanced, still aircooled singles... but nevertheless, OHC, four valves etc. I notice a lot of the things he talks about would seem to lead to a `classic' race engine; i.e., everything concentrated into a narrow 1000rpm range of power somewhere near the redline, where the cam and the pipe align.
Is it hopelessly outdated and if so, what's the name of the book that has replaced it? Or is it still a very useful book to examine and understand?
