Oh crap I got my forums mixed up, sorry.
 
I like me some MGD too, but that was years ago. Im pretty sober these days. 1UZFE Lexus 32V V8. Not Detroit but smoother than them all.

Went to dinner in town, Greenwood SC, last night and stumbled onto a car show. To add a few more engines to the list, the 215 all aluminum Oldsmobile and Buick V8 engines. Also saw a Buick Wildcat with the 2 4 barrel carbs and giant chrome round air cleaner. Very cool! I'll even ad the Corvair air cooled 6.
 
A 5 HP Briggs n Stratton on a Schwinn bicycle frame, still my all time favorite before moving to the big bikes.
 
Pretty much any older Buick engine, Jeep 4.0L inline-6, Cummins 5.9L, any 2-stroke Detroit Diesel esp 8v-92, Lycoming/Duesenberg DOHC inline-8

Briggs is a damn sight better than any Tecumseh. But I'll raise you the 26hp twin cylinder Kohler in my Cub. Lol
