How well do you know your V-8's?
 

Gotta admit, I missed two of 'em... But I'm 68 years old with a fading memory. That's my excuse & I'm sticking to it. Fun quiz here:

Engine ID Game #2 (V8s from 1957 to 1972) - American Torque .com

You got 84% (16 right out of 19). The average score is 57%.

I remember this from awhile back. I sucked. And here I've been a car nut for all of my life. Some things don't matter.

You got a cool car, tell me about it. If I don't know a Buick nailhead, I'll still sleep OK tonight.

I don't know V-8s that well. I know a small block chevy, a big block chevy, a Buick 430/455, and I could probably pick out a 426 hemi, but anything else, and I'd be lost.

I think I got lucky at 58%

hey if it is painted Ford Blue... it is most likely a Ford

and... if the last answer was 455, then the next engine that looks different is likely not a 455

Is that a water pump going bad?

Remind me to hijack the next thread you start, okay?

That 951 mill is a great engine.

wow..i lived a very sheltered chevy small block life. that test was tough..

15 out of 19. Im losing it.. :(

I got 14/19 The Mopar ones were the easiest...

12 of 19. At least I nailed all the Mopar and Studebaker questions...

17 of 19.

Never seen a Pontiac 370 before.

It's certainly no 4.6L... :rolleyes:

14/19. The Pontiac 370 threw me. The Pontiac 421 Tripower setup could have been a 389. I believe they are physically identical.

not bad, considering i wasnt even alive when any of these motors came out...and i've never owned a car that had one of those motors. (well, ive worked on lots of old pontiac gto's)

Randy touched on it...knowing engine block colors is a help.

lol. pot meet kettle. i enjoy your posts, paul...but how many threads have you crashed with pictures of a green mustang?

Same block...it was tough, but semi easy because no 389 listed in the choices. But, no such thing as a Pontiac "Big Block" really. 326-389-421 were all the same block.

Truth...didn't hurt me that "I was there".

the 428 and 455 were the same, block as well, right? the last goat i worked on was a 389 bored to 421. the '65 and '66 GTO's engines were different shades of blue, too. I believe the 65 was silver blue. the 66 was baby blue.

when i was little, i went to the Tri-power Nationals with my dad. fun times.

My score was..........
 

15 out of 19 with 2 head smacks for making dumb mistakes. 79% !

I got 16,
cool tester

13 of 19. Not good, since I grew up with most of these.
