Yes, that's a very good site if you want to learn how things like machinery operate. I've been to that site a few times.

They don't explain mechanical fuel injection.

Poor ol' Rochester FI and Bosch K Jetronic...

They have pretty much everything there.

Yes, there is an article on Turbocharging and Supercharging.

They don't say a word about L- and F-head valvetrain layouts!

I think it's just a simple explaination for car noobs.

Its very basic. Buy a book on automotive tech. That should make an interesting read.

Basic, yet still helpful.
