They were leftover engines that Pontiac got when they bought the company. If I remember right it was on a Thursday and the special at the cafe was baked steak. (Trying for extra, extra points.)  SignatureLark Parker Chevy had their first V8 around WWI, but Oakland hadn't brought forth Pontaic yet, so it wasn't one from their parts bin.. Probably from the same team who made the V12 Packard in the 1960s. KDH Hey! I just opened the ad and noticed that it didn't say V8, just 8. Karl 1917 for the Chevy V8 <midlant wrote... > Chevy had their first V8 around WWI, but Oakland hadn't brought forth > Pontaic yet, so it wasn't one from their parts bin.. > Probably from the same team who made the V12 Packard in the 1960s. > KDH >1917 for the Chevy V8 > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> Probably from the same team who made the V12 Packard in the 1960s. >> KDH Oakland had a OHV V8 engine from 1917 through 1923. They brought out the FLATHEAD V8, 85 hp in 1930 and continued through 1932. The last of the engines were put used up 1932 Pontiacs in 1933. Pontiac brought out a new straight 8 engine in 1933.

If you want I can get you his name and you can educate him. It's a FLATHEAD V8 engine with a really odd exhaust piping arrangement. Chevy's earlier shortlived effort in 1917-18 was an OHV.
