I did crappy and only got 7. I missed the Chevy 348. I knew it was a 348 or a 409 which both have the notched valve covers. My understanding is that the 348 was typically a truck motor, so I went with the 409....WRONG. If I remember correctly you can tell by which side the dipstick is on, but I couldn't remember which was which. :D

15 out of 19. And I'll bet every one of those engines is older than me.

The 289 Stude threw me,looked like a ford,the other Stude with the S/C I recognised right off. Most of my misses were Fords,and the Olds 350.

12/19 but like DJ said they are older than myself. The odd balls threw me, then it's like anything confidence down and you make poor judgment.

Speaking of Studebakers, check out this beauty...a 1960 Lark with a transplanted Avanti 289:
