...to see who has the most (running) cylinders, in your garage, driveway, barn, shop, etc (no counting those seasoned blocks under the bench). We used to resurrect this competition at work every couple of years and it was kinda fun "bragging rights". Guess I should start but I am under no illusion of being competitive with this Moparts crowd. I predict the numbers will be large and maybe even surprise the guys who decide to add them up. For me.....

- two V8's, one 4 cyl, one 3 cyl, seven 1 cyl - Total is 30 cylinders for me

30….. 1 v8, 3 6cyl, 2 2cyl

…..and I could count 8 more, but that’s my spare for the racecar and doesn’t fit into the spirit of the rules

2 V8s and 3 four cylinders. = 28

Do I count weedeater or air compressor??? If so...that's 2 more

I don't have any spare blocks laying around

Thought I would get in before the big dogs sign in.
(3) V8s, (3) 6 cyls, (1) 4 cyl, (2) 1 cyls = 48 cyls. However my boy just sold his 5.0 Mustang and the guy is coming over today to pick it up, so my total is 40 cylinders.

1 v8
2 6 cyl
2 4 cyl
4 1 cyl

32 for me. And shopping for more...

Do I win something for the least amount? I have 1 cylinder - my 2023 Honda CRF450 dirtbike.

Too much thinkin' and 'rithmetic, ......... but best I can conjure up in a reasonable amount of time is

6 - V8's

3 - 6's, two straights and one V

1 - 4cyl

1- 3cyl

2 - 2cyl

8 - 1cyl



So, thinkin' that's about 85 cylinders total.


Edit,

Somebody said Air Compressor - so 2 more

Power washer - 1 more

Roto-tiller - 1 more

Generator - 2 more


So new total is now - 91 cylinders total.

Told ya there would be some big numbers.....thanks for playing

8x8 = 64
Plus lawnmower, rototiller, pressure washer, generator, etc....if they have cylinders!

I have 44 running car and truck cylinders without counting 22+ running motorcycles of various single, twin and four cylinders. Can I count the motorcycles?

Gee I forgot about those too.

At my shop:

2 4 wheelers------2
1939 F-20----------4
8N Ford--------------4
2 Slants-------------12
318---------------------8
340---------------------8
350 Buford---------8
46

Running? LOL...

I cut the fleet a few months back, so I'm currently at 38 cylinders: 4 V8s and a V6.
Plans are to add another V8, but I'm an under-achiever compared to many here.
I'm past the era of having 10 cars.

i only have 22........
2 v6's, 1 v8, and my 2 cylinder compressor.

Number varies but here goes...
Magnum =8
Ram 3500 = 6
Race truck = 8
CJ5 =4
37 Buick = 8
Jr/FC =1
'31 Chevy truck =6
Int LPX = 8
59 Chevy panel = 6
74 Vega = 8
2 Gen sets =4
Lawn mower = 2
Weed eater 1
Lawn Vac 1
Total on the property (all running, installed - implement/automotive/racing) engines = 67

Add 24 for running Engines on stands
(555 BBC - Blower motor)
(526 Hemi Spare Race truck motor)
(383 SBC in waiting for install)
466 Frame cut waiting to go in LPX =6

Non runners (various reasons)
7.3 Corn Binder =8
318 Mopar = 8
528 Hemi for Valiant- disassembled for repair = 8
Onan gen set = 2

Think that's about everything...

Trimmers, chainsaws, leaf blowers, compressors, mowers, power washers,etc. all count, as long as they are running and working

Plymouth=8
Jeep =6
Buick=4
Tractor=2
Weed Wacker=1

Total is: 21

Then I'm up to 92 but I know I'm missing a few?

Oh I forgot the two Sea Ray boats one with a Mercruiser 5.7L V8 and the other with a Mercruiser 140 IL 4 so 92 + 12 = 104 and surely missing something??
