Hot Rod Engine Quiz

Got this from John Farr:

http://www.americantorque.com/game/engine-id/

I got 17/18, although I have to admit I guessed (correctly) on a couple of them.

Whoo Hoo, I got 9/18. You know what to do, On a serious note though, at least I got all the Ford engines correct. Maybe I need to brush up on obscure trivia some more. A few years ago I might have actually done a respectable job on that quiz.

That would be "Mr. Dude" to you... Gee, you really are the trivia king! Just out of curiosity, where did you acquire all of your knowledge about '50s and '60s V8 engine identification? You must have a lot larger stash of old Hot Rod, Car Craft, Motor Trend, Car Life, and Custom Rodder magazines than I do...

Only got that because you wrote down all the answers after the 1st try and then went back and tried it again.

I got 19 correct! Actually 16/18, and I do have an enormous stash of '50's-'00's magazines, but most of my answers were educated guesses based not only on the 'motor' (they are engines) but the surroundings. kennyg

Ha! Mr. Dude, that's funny. see the thing is my dad used to have an old impala that i helped him work on so i learned all about motors. i used to have to hit the front of the engine with a stick to help get it started.
