Well here's my shot at it let me know how i did.

 

1. Big Block Chevy
2. AMC
3. Mopar
4. Ford Cleveland (8 bolts...)
5. Small Block Chevy
6. Windsor Ford
7. FE Ford
8. 426 Hemi
9. Pontiac
10. Could be Y-block, early Stude
11. Mopar poly
12. W Block Chevy
13. Early Hemi

 

pretty sure 10 is too long and skinny to be a y block.

2 is of course a rambler...doh

 

13 can only be a WAG, the only differences between Chrysler and Desoto are dimensions, which aren't provided, and there is no scale. without a ruler included in the photo, any answer is just a guess. And I missed #10. #4 is 351 Cleveland/400m.

 

Pretty sure #10 is center bolt olds rocket. I will take a look at mine in the morning. Still getting used to this Olds stuff...

 

You're getting there..

Round two....

14. Big Block Olds
15. Packard
16. 350 Buick
17. Late Caddy
18. '58-65 Lincoln
19. 385 Series Ford
20. SOHC 427 Ford

 

You've been around...

Number 10 still not IDed. Yeah, no holes, but a common engine not mentioned.

 

I'm thinking #10 is nailhead Buick, the notches give it away

 

Correct!

 

Just saved me a trip downstairs to look at my olds...

 

I missed 17 and 18 in the second batch...late caddy never would have guessed that in a million years!

 

Where are the 1st gen Olds Rockets? You know there are at least two sets of these! Late 1st gen rockets had holes around perimeter. Early ones had no holes.
