Thanks guys.

 

Just put a 289 in the Coupe, have another on the floor to build for the 'Boys' 40 Coupe. My neighbor has a 89' 302 under his work bench, 302 FOrds are easy to come by around here.

 

I have, in my garage, a Ford Flathead with 239 ci.
Relieved (Merc heads), cammed, stroked. just waiting for mine or someone else's project.

Why doesn't the poll include Buicks?
I have one that measures out at 215 and is all aluminum to boot.

Three 259's and a 289 Studebaker V-8s here, I went to the Stanton Mi. Pure Stock Muscle Car Drags and what did I see?

 

model A motor count?

 

59 283 and a 265(haven't checked year yet)

 

I've got a baby LT1 - 4.3L V8 - 262 cu in

swdobbs....

 

I've got a 302 Chevy. I don't know if it's spare 'cause I don't think it'll work in anything I own. Way too much for the street. It's sitting in the back of my '34.

 

I've got a '66 2bbl 289 in storage.

 

How cruel - that's right - pick on the kid with glasses, eh!?!

ALL my engines are under 302 cubic inches - and some are under 302cc!
Now I'm going to need some therapy...

 

I've got two Flatties. One 239 incher and a big 'ol 286 Merc.
Neither for sale.....cheap anyways.

 

I have one 65 Plymouth 273 2 barrel in a Cuda and one 65 Dodge 273 Solid Lifter Hi-Compression 273 in my Dart GT Convert.

And a couple 315 Dodge polyheads, a 56 and a 57.

 

I should have said GM products, Ford and Mopar.

It's just something I was wondering about. Not really about motors you have in a vehicle, but motors you have sitting around in your shop or out back under a tarp......

 

The 273 2 barrel is coming out and being replaced by a built 360 so it will be living under the bench unless it gets a better invitation.

 

I got a 289ci and a 200ci ford, Please tell me you'll take it off my hands for a cup of coffee. I too got a couple 241ci redrams but not in the Poll... I really dig them!

 

I have 4 283 chevrolets.

1 in my 54 chevy rebuilt and running.

1 in my garage being put back together for my 46 ford project.

2 in my dad's barn from 1958 chevrolets.

I have 1 235 in a 58 bel air.

1 305 in a 65 el camino.

That's it.

 

I do not have access to ANY spare motor, Ford, Chevy, or otherwise, but the poll wouldn't let me vote for none, so your results are skewed to only those who can answer yes to one of the two.

 

Plymouth 273 commando on the stand, 41 flatty on a dollie, inline 4 Durant under the bench.

 

My '29 RPU will have a Ford Flathead. Stock displacement is 239 ci. I will rebuild it with a 4 in. crank to go to 256 ci. The spare engine will be the same. Hot rods NEED flathead Ford V8's.

 

I have a '58 283 Chevy waiting to go into my truck.

 

i got a 289 studebaker v8 but i suppose that don't count as its not a ford or chebby
