Designed for the “street/strip” enthusiast and experienced machinist.  Acquire knowledge and instruction on the selection and application of Speed-Pro and Fel-Pro performance parts.  Calculate engine displacement, compression ratio, cam and piston selection.  Measure cylinder head combustion area.  Discuss the outcome when selecting high performance engine parts.  Hands-on experience will be provided in critical machining procedures.  Knowledge is gained on design changes for proper component selection, assembly, and sealing of engines.

Prerequisite: Minimum of 2 years automotive experience preferred.
