Here’s a little test to see how well you know your old engines. Yes, there’s an Olds in there.(GMC content)

Woo HOO! I got 47% correct mostly because I can recognize a Mopar alternator, an Olds 455, and a small block Chevy.

74%

Not that I know motors, I an very good at multiple-guess tests!

Just a tip, on multiple-guess tests, if possible take it backwards. Often later questions answer earlier ones!
