I wonder what the most recent car to use a straight 8 is, any idea?

I think either Hudson or Packard. They both held out on V8s for longer than other companies.

Just don’t engine brake down a hill with one. It’s a good way to end up with a 2 piece crank.

I would not have known that. Is that just because the crank is so long?

yes and they were made using twist manufacturing processes, basically it was machined all in similar planes 180 degrees between throws, then heated and twisted to the different degreed positions. We have come a long way since then.

Yeah I don’t know that much about fabrication and metal, but that doesn’t sound like a great idea.
