Does anyone have an online tutorial about modifying an engine?

For instance - step by step guide, recommended tools, and bits that are needed.

Tuning I feel I have down, I'm talking about internals.

Modifications are only done to the sleeve and crankshaft, right?

Some also modify the conrod to recieve more RPM but this will shorten the life of the conrod.

What type of bits should be used to grind metal? I will be using a dremel.

Case clearancing, Cutting the crank, piston, sleeve and rod. The only way you can shorten the life of the rod is if you over rev it and break it.

www.affordablenitrotech.com

I found some articles on there, and performed the mods to a couple of engines.

Needless to say, I now have a little O.S. .12 CV that scares me!
