POLL: What Engines Call Your Car Home?

[1evilregal]

do I get to vote 3 times??

regal-currently empty, and may be contemplating radical change from the sbc327 that was in it...

Grand Prix- sbc (original motor was a sbc305)
cutty- sbo original to car, refreshed with new crank, rings, and gaskets...

there is no such thing as a Pontiac small block or big block, they are intermediate blocks

I know. That's what the quotes were for. 😛 "Small" as in 326, 350, maybe the 389. And "Big" as in the 400, 421, 428, 455, etc. For most people who don't really know there isn't a "Small" or "big" poncho motor. I'll admit I was being a tad facetious.

I know. It was just an easy way to define the engines based on Cubic inch, not weather they were actually small or big. I made it at like 4am man. lol

I don't think it fits putting all the unicorns in the v6 spot! You need a spot for turbo v6 and one for v6. My turbo 6 was the highest horsepower engine available in a Monte Carlo in 1980.

Done.

I need to vote a few more times.

Well, the much maligned small block Chevy seems to be most popular.

 

[MrSony]

I don't think there was every much doubt. With more of them around than anyone could possibly count, and really the only GM thing being made anymore, the small block chevy reigns supreme.

The Turbo V6 can only be Buick. But for non-turbo there are three different V6s -- Buick, Chevy 229, and Chevy 4.3L. I know no one is proud of any of them, but that's why they resent each other! 😀
