Cylinder Index- how do you rate?


Recommended Posts

I recal reading in a snowmobiling magazine a few years back about a "cylinder index". the thought was this is a true measue of how much you are a "Manly-Man!".

the rule is you get one point for each of the cylinders in each interal combustion engines you own. lets see how everyone stacks up?

i'll go first:
Tahoe 8
Boneville 6
Evinrude 90hp 4
Johnson 6hp 2
Jiffy 1
lawn mower 1
snow blower 1
chain saw 1
weed wacker 1

my total 25, not a lot but it's who i am !
anyone else care to try?

You guys have a lot. I'm waaaay lower.

Anyways,
Pickup = 6
Boat = 2
Mower = 1
Auger = 1
Total = 10 (ICK)

I need to stop with the manual tools and get a blower, weed wacker, 4 wheeler and chainsaw and maybe a go cart just to up my score. Sheesh!

Do Aluminum "cylinders" count in this game? At this point, I have 8 in the Ram, 6 in the T n C, 8 in the pickum' up truck, 2 in 1 wheeler, 1 in the other wheeler, 3 in 1 outboard, 2 in 2 others and 1 in the last, 5 in 5 lawnmowers, 2 in the chainsaws and finally, 1 in the "whacker". 41 by my count. Now, back to my question, Do aluminum "cylinders" count? In that "case", the count would be upped by 56. GULP, 55!

NOBODY ever died, wishing they had fished....LESS!!

Nice to see there are other "garage logicians" out there. My C.I. is a lousy 17. I'm 37 so I have to come up with 20 more. Should be fun trying.
