Inefficient/expensive meme engines when the entire point of muscle was cheap power.

Could you imagine an American V10 or V12 muscle car it would be too heavy because hurrr durr bigger engine means more power

Because a muscle car wasn't about waving your dick about having 10 or 12 cylinders.
It' was about being able to shred the tires into 4th gear with your foot to the floor with whatever music you wanted blasting through the AM radio.

Who gives a fuck what the output is honestly? losing a race sucks but at the same time, all the fun is in the actual racing. I can throw heads, an intake, and headers on my V8 and you can do the same to whatever you drive.
At the end of the day its about loving YOUR car, and having fun with it even if you 'lose'

I love you /o/

Not just that but if we spent the money we do on international affairs and military on ourselves America would probably be a shining beacon with the best healthcare and education as well as just being the most advance in infrastructure in general.

When Japan didn't have to worry about military or getting involved in any conflicts all of their money went into their own system and that turned out well for them.

Being a global militaristic super power has kinda taken its toll on this country i'm afraid.

Because making fiddly, high-maintenance engines for cars meant to be affordable is dumb.

>>14708619
A muscle car just means a high displacement RWD performance coupe that anyone in the lower-middle income bracket could afford.

IRL this translates into a cheap mass produced sedan with an already in production V8 tuned for performance.

Dodge builds the Viper which was at one point an affordable V10 performance coupe but once it hit the $60,000 mark it left that segment.

I agree, and we got ourselves in this boat when we decided that we wanted to be the playground bully and try to take everyone else's natural resources. As a result we have more enemies than allies (and half of our allies would rather watch us burn if we ever got into a situation where we were on the verge of destruction). Now we have no choice but to pump more than half of our GDP into our military.

The reality is we will never have it as good as some other nations (quality of life wise). The moment we spend less on our military to truly better the country is the moment the entire middle east, many western nations, and all of Asia say "This is our chance" and we are perma fucked. And shit wont go down like it did in WWII. Current and future generations wont put their lives on the line for this country because they wont bother defending something with such a shit history.

Greed and Racism created this country and it will be the death of this country

We made the Triton V10, it was 6.8L and was
only really used in heavy duty trucks and RVs.
The engines are still in production.
We made the Viper V10,
used in the viper and the dodge ram SRT-10

V12s are pretty much a European engine, america had a V12 car, the Vector M12, but it used a Lamborghini engine.
if you go way back, Lincoln had v12s up until 1948 called the Lincon-Zephyr.

and lastly pic related, GMC made a 702 cubic inch V12 called the Twin six, It was used in heavy duty trucks only. 630 lb-ft peak torque at 1,600 rpm.
And it ran on regular 87 octane gasoline.

>half the world will invade america just because they stop spending silly money on the military

>>14708619

For a given displacement, the more cylinders you have the more horsepower you have and the higher RPMs it can reach. The fewer cylinders you have, the more torque you have and the lower the redline.

American muscle was about tire-shredding torque in under-stressed engines, not high-RPM screamers.

It is because muricans didnt care for comfortable long distance driving, take a look at todays top class grand tourers, all of them V12, and that is for a reason
