If you're into the GM Gen III/Gen IV engine tech, then the Advanced Engine Technology Conference (AETC) is the place to be December 8th through the 10th at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Speakers already slated to present the latest in Gen III/IV engine information include many engine builders that you've read about in Car Craft, including Ken Duttweiler on advanced tuning techniques on LSX engines, Janson Haines from Lingenfelter Performance Engineering (LPE) who will detail how to make 1,000 RWHP reliably, and Judson Massingill of the School of Automotive Machinists (SAM) will discuss building big-inch LSX engines for maximum performance. Just those three topics alone are worth the trip, but there are several other presenters for the three days. I will definitely be there and you should too. You can register at aetconline.com. The first 100 entries get a free jacket.
