Buick quietly retired its Nailhead V8 family for 1967, replacing it in the Riviera with an all-new 430-cubic-inch big block rated at 360 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque. The switch mattered more for how it changed the car’s power delivery than for any single spec number. Here’s why Buick made the change, and what it meant for its personal luxury flagship.

Dodge built the Challenger’s E-body platform to accept virtually any engine in Chrysler’s catalog, from a base slant-six all the way to the 426 Hemi, a range few rivals matched. This particular car splits the difference with a 440 big block and four-speed manual, delivering real muscle car performance without Hemi-level pricing. Here’s where that engine fits in the Challenger’s performance hierarchy.
This 1966 GTO tribute marks the end of an 83-year run for Pontiac, a brand GM discontinued in 2010 after the 2009 financial crisis forced a broader restructuring. Long before that ending, the GTO had already posted the highest single-year sales total of any muscle car ever built. Here’s the brand history behind the one car that defined what Pontiac was capable of.

Dodge didn’t just hand Vin Diesel a car for this campaign, it built three separate commercials around three different high-performance vehicles, scored to a soundtrack that sounds more like a movie trailer than an ad. The message leans hard on attitude over spec sheets, closing with a tagline aimed at buyers who want more than transportation. Here’s what Brotherhood of Muscle actually delivered on screen.
The Chevrolet Malibu sashayed onto the scene as a high-end Chevelle in 1964, sporting various snazzy interiors and body styles, from sporty coupes to family-friendly wagons. By 1966, it was all about power, baby, with the SS-396 series roaring in with its big block V8. Fast forward to 1973, and Malibu strutted into the spotlight as its own model, leaving Chevelle in the dust. By ’77, the Laguna dazzled with its four-square headlights, making sure everyone saw it coming. Talk about making an entrance!
A Ford F-100 badged Ranger XLT should be running a mild truck engine, not the same 428 Cobra Jet that powered some of the era’s quickest Mustangs and Torinos. Ford never factory-installed that engine in a pickup, which raises the obvious question of how this one got under the hood. The answer says a lot about how enthusiasts turn work trucks into sleepers.
