Muscle
cars are great fun for many reasons. They look cool, theyre exclusive, collectible,
visceral machines that make you glad you own one and envious if you dont.
And best of all, theyre fast.
Muscle cars are fast because theyre driven by some of the largest and most powerful
engines ever dropped in a production vehicle and served up to the general public. And we
think its time to review some the greatest muscle car motivators offered by GM and
Chrysler.
Most are production engines, but weve thrown in a few Specials for the
sake of completeness, and because we dig horsepower. This is by no means a complete
listing of all the hot-rod engines produced during the muscle car era -- that would indeed
fill a book -- this is more of a highlight reel.
So come with us now for more than a trip down memory lane... this is a cruise down Muscle
Boulevard.
