Re: Know your engines!

You got 17 right out of 17. The only tricky one was the 348/409 with the dipstick.

Re: Know your engines!

I have much studying to do, only 11/17. The 348/409 question didn't throw me, but only because I had a customer pick one up from work (I work on a truck company dock) and we spent a while talking about it.

Re: Know your engines!

Similar to a car emblem game I found. This one was fun. Only a real gearhead would know some of those old engines. I scored 16 out of 17 and had to think about a bunch of them.


How well do you know your car emblems? There are 50 so it takes a while.

Re: Know your engines!

I missed the Wedge block with the cross-ram intake (can't see much of the engine).
