From the August 1999 issue of HOT ROD: As of the late-’90s, this power-adder had a black eye due to a lack of understanding. By Ray T. BohaczThe never-ending quest for horsepower centers around air. Popular modifications allow an engine to pump more air by means of efficient induction components or longer valve-opening events.

I have a 1988 Avanti Silver Anniversary Edition convertible, which was built over a Chevy Monte Carlo chassis and drivetrain. It has a factory Paxton supercharged Chevy 305 H.O. engine. My question is, what is the technical difference between the standard 305 and the 305 H.O. in horsepower and internal parts used?

Subsequently, my blessed journey has taken me to the pages of around forty-five different magazine titles, some of them having to do with classic automobiles. I have lost track, but I have over 3,000 published (in print) technical articles, not counting my work over the past few years.

For the last few years, the weather has been...
