Not going to die in a ditch for this one, but grille looks 1962+ Daimler 2½ Litre V8 to me. If Jag, = 1960+ Mk2.

I think that I'm probably with you on the Daimler, but then the problem is, is it a 2 1/2 litre or a V8-250? With the double curved bumpers it's likely to be the earlier 2 1/2 litre.

Hooray - welcome to my madness. Yes the early 2½ Litre for bumpers.

2.5L V8? Too small...

Daimler V8 2.5 litre 142 bhp.
Ford V8 3.6 litre 85 bhp.

No contest.

How about torque curve? Horsepower sucks.

Daimler 210 Nm at 3,600.
Ford in 85 bhp tune 195Nm, can't find the revs but presumably quite a bit lower, as about 3,600 would have been pretty close to its maximum rate.

I am being unfair in comparing a flathead design from the thirties with a 20 year newer concept, but 2 1/2 litres is quite adequate to make the V8-250 perform well, as I can tell you from personal experience.

Well, actually I meant that 2.5L is somewhat small displacement for V8 layout, not that 2.5L is small and weak.)

Bugatti made a 1990cc straight eight, and the BRM type 15 was a 1,488cc V-16, but yes, 2.5l is a small V8, a quick search of my memory doesn't offer anything else. There was a sub 3-litre V8 made by Standard in the late 30s, and Hillman made a 2620cc straight eight in 1929. Amilcar made a 1994cc straight 8, and there was also the Triumph straight 8 Dolomite, a 1990cc engine, total production 3.

And all of mentioned engines were made before WWII. Bugatti also produce 12.7L straigth eight.)

BMW's 3.0L V8 from the 90's comes to mind.

1950s Fiat 2-litre V8 for 8V coupe (apparently their only V8 car engine). 1975 Ferrari 208GT4 2-litre Italian domestic tax-break special, plus later turbo versions. A few racing bike V8s under 1000cc down to 1955 Moto Guzzi Grand Prix 500 cc V8, 82 bhp with each cylinder having its own carburetter.

The only Fiat I have ever owned had four cylinders, and with a Mercedes and a Bentley to run, I can't afford a Ferrari as well!
