Whats the best way to see if a car has a V8...

If that's all it can do, it's a 6.

I've seen the 305 V8's (automatic camaros) that would barely get second, nowhere near 3rd. Some of the smaller V8's just don't have the oomph(there seems to be an era from the late 70's to the mid 90's where the performance wasn't there for a lot of V8'S). Not all, but most....... had weak 8 cyls in this era. I want to say some of the early 80's Corvettes only had the basic 250 hp small block....IN A VETTE.... Chevy's biggest sports car??? I beleive....... the basic version of the 454 is only 290 hp.

what a douschebag. just pour a quart of oil on the groud of his car and be like "hey you're leaking a lot of oil dude, pop the hood so we can see where its comming from" He should be so worried he won't think about the fact that you'll see his 6cyl

I'd try this or antifreeze, should get him to pop the hood real quick when he sees his baby bleeding. :huggy:

So - you're suggesting it's a stolen ENGINE? That's a little strange.
And I gotta know, whathappened w/ your oddball buddy? Did you rat him out?

Well, not necessarily, but it's not out of the question. I'm just saying what I said, that I've seen this behavior before. As for my acquaintance with the sticky fingers, hell yeah I ratted him out. As soon as I saw the box I recognized it, because I helped install it in the original owners car when he bought it. I just shut the trunk and walked inside the store, and didn't say a word. Later I told the original owner where his property was, and he in turn informed the police, who in turn went and arrested the shit head. All thieves deserve to rot in hell, but of course he ended up with just community service. Damn it.
