When it comes to V8 engines, no nation can produce units with as much muscle and road presence as the United States. The country was the motherland for the V8 for decades and, thanks to the likes of Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis, remains a big player in the providers of the powertrain layout to this day. The most prolific period was during the 1960s, when every US brand worth its salt installed a massive V8 engine under the hood of every model it could get away with.
