For as long as the automobile has been around, it has needed some sort of engine or motor to power it. Much like the vehicles they inhabit, some of these engines throughout the years have been as famous — and even more famous, in some cases — than some of the actual models using them. Take the original Chevrolet small-block V8, for example. Virtually everyone knows of the famous mill, but some models that have used it in the past are quite obscure by comparison.
