Easy- 348/409 Chevy W motor- Offered in passenger cars from 1958-mid 1965 model year. Replaced by the 396 in January 1965. Also available as a 427, but only for racing, and for a very short period of time in the early 1960's.

Being old makes me good for something.
It also helps not to be blindly loyal to one brand only.

16/18.

Being even older than you are (and owning over 326 old rolling piles of misery since 1956), didn't help me much when it came to ID'ing one Chevy and one Chisler engine!

11 out of 18, the W's i only got because horse Power TV just did a 409 and the some of them like the wedge were right only because i knew it owuld hava an odd name iwth an intake like that. most of those engines i have never seen in real life so it was mostly blind luck (like some one said in a different thread "even a broken watch is right twice a day")...

Same here on the little knowledge part, but I got 11. And I think almost all those engines were older than I am (days shy of 34).

12/18. I got most of the small blocks right, the rest were lucky guesses. I hadn't even seen most of the first half. Great game though! Did anyone do the 50-60's musclecar trivia?
