How Well Do You Know Your V8's?

[Raudermaster]

I got 15 out of 18 correct. I'm sure we have many master's on here who will get them all.

[baltimoremm]

i only got 11 :(

[Raudermaster]

I don't even know how, I guessed on like 8 of them! Some of them I've never even seen before.

[sd8683]

I got 14 thank god for multiple choice otherwise I would have got 10 right

[vkirkend]

i only got 11 :(

You did better than me, just 9.:shake:

[Krytin]

Don't feel two bad - all I could do was 15 out of 18.
I did miss one I should not have on the 289 Ford.

[baltimoremm]

I got lucky on a few wild guesses

[CanadaMarauder]

14 out of 18...probably should have been 12

[ROB502]

I got 17 missed the Pontiac with the zoomies mistook it for a Ford 427.:banana: That was neat.

[Breadfan]

Woot! 17 of 18! I did guess on a few but they were educated guesses thanks to multiple choice!

Some of the pics are too small, one hardly had any detail it made guessing hard. Also one of the old's ones had "Oldsmobile Rocket" on the valve cover, which helped eliminate 2 of the 4 mulitple choice options! Still you had to know your rocket motors (early vs later) - I got lucky on that one.

[Pops]

17 out of 18! The second hemi got me.

[RoyLPita]

13 out of 18. I have led a sheltered life.

[jdando]

17 out of 18! The second hemi got me.

Way to go John! I had a feeling you would do well. I lead a very shelter life and did not fair well :o

[Breadfan]

I'd really like to get a hold of a Buick nailhead to drop in an old rat rod.

[Breadfan]

OK Guru's how about this one I found in the woods:

My father has 1940 ford pickup with a seized up 364ci nailhead in it, he's been trying to get rid of it for years, it needs a total restoration

I think its a 56 olds V8.

[magindat]

I got 9 of 18. The only one I knew right off and for sure was the wedge.

[jinxed]

these 3 threw me off

[ImpalaSlayer]

breadfan im sayin a 351

[Joe Walsh]

I got 16 out of 18.

I shouldn't have missed on the Olds 455...:(

[Blk Mamba]

It has an EGR port in the intake manifold, so it can't be a 56' Olds, I was leaning toward a Ford V-8, but it's big maybe a Y block 331, 361, 391 truck, industrial? (like in the old U-haul's)

[Richy04]

16/18 kewl!!!

[scruff]

it looks more like a 350-400 pontiac olds or maybe even a buick motor early 70,s me thinks

[Brian Humphries]

Olds mo-junk. By the way i got 17 of 18, Ponti-rag got me, thought it was a bb chevy w/cheap-ass headers!

[FastMerc]

it looks more like a 350-400 pontiac olds or maybe even a buick motor early 70,s me thinks
To many bolts in valve covers for that era Pontiac.Watch what you say about those Pontiacs.One was my 1st car and I still have it, Boys!

[RedMerc04]

15/18. Not bad

[larryo340]

[justbob]

[Glenn]

[Krytin]

What does he want for it?

[sd8683]

What does he want for it?

I think he wants 1500 bucks, I'll try and get some pics up after work if your interested

[Krytin]

Start a new thread in the "other cars for sale" section!
The price sounds good if there is enough remaining to work with.

I can hear it now:
"Honey, do we have a spare $1,500?........"

:argue:

:corner:

Ok will do!

[JMan]

Cool game! I should've gotten 17 but only got 15 right. The picture is an Olds post emissions era (>'72), probably a 350cid due to the two-barrel intake. They did produce some smogger 403's and 455's with two-barrel carburetors though!

[Breadfan]

BTW, I know I got to see that motor in the woods up close compared to the rest of you, but I never pulled any #'s off of it.

I'm thinking it's a Dodge 360 van motor.

For my age I have a pretty decent Idea of what to look for combined with the process of elimination which yeilded me a pretty good score. Remember, the younger guys here do drive Marauders so there is probably a uniform interest in muscle cars. Try giving this to most 19 year olds; it would be all random guesses.

[ImpalaSlayer]

i change my answer i tdont think its a ford the hole for the distributer is in the rear. unless some fords had them in the rear

Mid 70's olds 455 Big block...wide intake, big heads with small valve covers and has to be newer than 50-60 due to EGR port in intake...check the casting letter if it's a "C" then you can sell that as a pretty hefty core...if "k" or "j" smogger heads=crap...

[Aren Jay]

I guessed and got 5 right.

[UncleLar]

I got 18 out of 18 right.
The boat anchor looks like a 350 Olds to me.

[Leadfoot281]

17 out of 18. I guess having worked in a salvage yard does have it's benefits. :rolleyes:

[Illss]

10-18 :flamer:
