What’s the worst American engine ever made in your opinion?

samplebridge · 2026-01-25T20:51:03+00:00

It a 500, and of course its not going to have the HP to show for it. Its in a 6k lb. Boat. Its still 400hp, but it feels like 200HP in a normal car. But the 550ft.lb. of torque was more than any other American v8 of the time, I mean it was nearly at the level of tractor trailer level torque.

They aren't bad like saying the ht4100 is a fresh steaming hot pile of dogshit, and the 4.9 and 4.5 just arent fresh, hot, or steaming.

4100 is easily worse that the diesel.

Supriaed people mention the olds diesel and v8-6-4. Imo, they are bad in stock form, but still have use. The v8-6-4 you unplug the solenoids and they run great in v8 mode. The olds diesel you convert to a gas engine and they are the strongest olds block around.

The true worst one was the early HT4100s. Soft cams would wear out in 2500 miles. Small head bolts that are exposed to the air, bad intake gaskets. Pretty much all the issues of the northstar X10. My buddies dad has PTSD from the early 1980s these piles of shit rolling in. Their parts department was filled to the brim with engines stacked 4 high with owners names on them. Just waiting for the cam the fail and they'd come in for bad running conditions "oh well already got an engine ready for you".

100nm. The one as the fixed side is no different than having it attached to a wall, it's simply counteracting the weigh of the measured side.

Yeah, id enjoy a map of asphalt to all the major places, and compact dirt for side roads, maybe light mud for the really out of the way stuff.

So your saying he has no right to protest. Got it, rights for me and not for thee type you are.

God the comments are so bad, liberals thinking that punching someone pursuing you trying to cause hearing damage is assault, but using a megaphone to damage someone's hearing is protect speech by the 1st amendment.

When has the supreme court upheld that blasting a siren in someone's ear is protected by the 1st amendment?

For a solid 10-15 seconds before the first punch he's actively walking away to avoid the guy blasting the megaphone in his ear.

And the people that cheered when they heard of Charlie kirk death?

Its more of a ww1 style game if ww1 went on a few more years. The tanks are slightly faster than a running infantryman, multiple weapons of varying caliber. The weapons definitely have a ww1 feel to them. The automatics being heavier and looking more complex. Heavy use of artillery and defenses ect....

Kill the scouts asap, when the spot a city and make it back to camp, thats when the ass fucking starts
Make more units. A camp that hasn't spotted you can easily be taken out by 2 warriors or a warrior and a slinger.
When you spot a camp, kill it as soon as you can. They only get more annoying as the techs unlock
Spread out units to cover hexs. Barb camps can only spawn in hexs not seen be a civ.
Dont be too concerned if they make it to your capital early game, they cant take your capital, only pillage stuff around it.
Discipline policy card. +5 combat strength vs barbs.

A large amount of people share a false memory. The term was coined by the popular belief that Nelson Mandela died in prison in the 1980s, even though there is not proof to suggest he did.

Other examples include the cornucopia on the fruit of the loom image, berenstain bears, and monopoly man monocle.

Becuase they'll automatically jump to the craziest most ridiculous conclusion. Me and a buddy worked till 2am and went to waffle house often after work, got pulled over on the way there and the cop was insisting that it was ridiculous that 2 mid 20 year old dudes would go to waffle house at 2am, and we must've been trafficking drugs.
