go & get the david vizard tuning BL A-series engines book. it goes into incredible detail in plain terms on all forms of engine tuning. I know its about a-series mini engines, but basically an engine is an engine.

Get Hillier's Fundamentals of Motor Vehicle Technology if your wanting to start learning the basics. There are various books which obviously go through different things but the first one is the basics of cars really but all systems not just engines. I used them while i was at college serving my time.

It is alot of reading though 544 pages but it has diagrams and it is all explained really well.
