What is the COOLEST Looking V8 you would have in your HotRod

Something different. Articulated pushrods. Micky Thompson 427FE with Hemi heads

 

Olds 5.7 diesel.
Slight plans on putting one in my 59 catalina project..

 

only ever seen two of these qaud over head cam sbc but would love to put this in a open fender roadster

 

Perfect combo, Offy in a Model A

 

If I was doing a ride with an exposed engine, Novi, BRM!

 

the best thing to do with that motor is convert to gas. with bore and stroke you could have as much as 452 cid small block olds.

 

The Olds 350 was a weird choice for a diesel version: one of the most oversquare engines ever. One would have expected the designers to begin with something with a longer stroke.

 

Im a sucker for blown 392 Chrysler Hemis, so that'd be my first choice. Second would be a DOHC 427 Ford.

 

Not a V-8, but so cool I'd give it a pass! Can you just imagine the sight and sound of that performance on the street in a little Model A??!!!<label for="rb_iconid_10"></label>

 

1938 Galbusera v8
Originally in a motorcycle but I think it would be awesome in a little roadster

 

Hemi.

 

426 hemi

 

5.7 Diesel Dyno project from the 80's, 400 cu. in. w/ a custom stroker crank dated 1984, haven't figured out where to use it, maybe my jet boat. The injection pump was governed @ 6000 rpm, don't know if it went that high on the dyno.

 

SBC.... COOLEST motor ever designed in the history of mankind, or perhaps,the universe!!!! Chris

 

Simple and inexpensive, But Beautiful and correct in the right car

my pic would be a 318 poly
I grabbed this off the net

 

Howabout Ford Flatheads

 

I think my next hotrod will have a nailhead Buick.

 

440 Chrysler in my 57 chev wagon, flip front end and straight axle

 

It,s what I got, and what I like!

 

hemi but got a 383 in it now

 

Ford 427 SOHC would do nicely, especially with an injected 6-71 on top.

 

Well it ain't going to ever happen, but, a Ball Stud Hemi would be it.

 

One word ......Ardun.......ok two words Offy.

 

392 Hemi
