Cylinder Index

[Fixit]

Ok Guys... Over on my Chevelle Club we've got a thread called "Cylinder Index".

We need you to count all of the internal combustion cylinders you have! (Air Compressors do not qualify!)

Cars, Trucks, Lawn Mowers, SnowBlowers, WeedWhackers, Boats, Sleds... 2-stroke, 4-stroke, Gas or Diesel

38

[NAZ]

If you're counting ALL the cylinders of all my IC powered equipment it comes to 52 cylinders total. And a lot of oil changes go along with that many engines to maintain.

[mike223]

Wait - wouldn't firearms count as "internal combustion cylinders"???

Do revolvers count as multiple cylinders???


Just askin, wouldn't want to cheat, lol... :p

[Fixit]

Firearms would up my count by a large factor... nah, just keep it to pistons/crankshafts...:cool:

[CdnCarNut]

When I first heard of the cylinder index, the goal was to ensure that it was higher than your age!

CI = 73, Age = 55

That's not bad for a guy who tends to keep cars for up to 10 years and spent 10+ years without a car while living in Asia.
