I wondering if the any younger guys here will do good on this test?


I'm a 1968 model year so I had a little insight on some of the engines in the test growing up....

I hadda feeling you would do good on this even though you are younger.....I know you had a early exposure to cars and racing since I was taking you to car shows and drag races ever since you were old enough to walk ! BTW ; I'm Boss's uncle....:D

I am 28 and got screwed up on the ChryCo Poly (I chose 340 wedge), The nailhead I thought was a poncho due to the dry intake/valley pan set up and for some reason I put Boss 429 for the early hemi. How dumb on me, the boss 9 has a very distinctive valve cover shape.

I got 12 out of 18, which is actually better than I expected, a lot of them could be deduced with process of elimination. I was born in 82 so I'm kind of a "young guy"

I agree, it's good some real old engines that not many guys know about...I knew the ones and I did not guess on any but, my age was a advantge I think...I wonder if Gramps SS will do good as he is soooooooooo old his SS number is 1 .....:rolf

Poorly. I managed to get 1 in 4 correct, which is pure chance.

I think I know Honda engines quite well.

1 in 4 = 4.5 out of 18 correct, good thing no math was involved in the quiz :goof

10/18 and most of them I just guessed on. I just looked at the color of block (if orange guess mopar) the car it was sitting in, the year of the car, and the general size of the engine.

An import version of this would be pretty cool.

8/18 and they were all guesses. I know zilch about pre-80's engines.

18 of 18! The only one I worried about was the smaller W block...The Y-block one was easy since it was using the blower it had, same as the blown t-birds. Very familiar with nailheads and early Olds rocket engines (had friends in HS with them). The poly kind of threw me for a loop since I'm not familiar with any 331 poly (I only know of the 318, so I think the test is WRONG!)....but could recognize that it wasn't the other engines listed. The caddy was easy due to the other choices.

Cool test...btw, I'm 34.
