Offy – America’s Greatest Racing Engine

by Ken Walton


Probably the most comprehensive history of this legendary engine and the bible for anyone trying to identify or rebuild one of these exquisitely machined
powerplants.

Offy analyzes architectural concepts used in the engine beginning with the Charlatan Peugeot of 1912. The history continues through the Miller/Offenhauser/Goossen era (1913 to 1933), Offenhauser/Goossen era (1934-1946), Meyer/Drake/Goossen era (1946-1965), and finally Drake/Goossen/Hermann era (1965-1980).

The book also includes shop manual assembly/disassembly data in 150-pages of incredibly detailed appendices.

With more than 650 images, the focus is on an American icon that dominated oval-track racing across the country (particularly the Indy 500) for nearly five decades.

Hard cover, 512 pages with dustcover.
