V-8

Bentley has built the last of its 6.75-liter L-Series V-8 engine as it says goodbye to the Mulsanne.

The 5.0-liter V-8 is on its way out at Genesis. It will not return for the next-generation G80 and will hold on in the G90 for the next few years.

Most car enthusiasts are well aware that a project car comes with a whole lot of baggage, namely in picking and sourcing appropriate parts. The engine is especially important, and depending on the individual's goals, making a lot of horsepower can get really expensive, really quickly. Enter Katech...

Tampering with vintage Ferraris is seen as a big no-no to many gearheads, but one gearhead said to hell with tradition. This 1963 Ferrari 250 GTE surfaced about two years ago and made a splash with its 302 cubic-inch Chevrolet V-8 under the hood. Now, it's up for sale. The ChevFerrari surfaced for...

This nitro-methane-powered hot rod is no toy.

The 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray does a remarkably good job...

Even though the first Corvettes started with the Blue Flame in-line six-cylinder engine as the standard powerplant, the V-8, offered since 1955, has become the car's iconic means of motivation.

Heresy it may be, but we don't care. Not even a little bit. This (apparently Southern) gentleman with an LS7-powered 911 Carrera is our newest hero. As Hooniverse (via VWVortex's The Car Lounge) points out, the LS7 is not only more powerful and more American than the Porsche flat-six it replaced...

Infiniti is helping to restore a classic Chris Craft Holiday speedboat, to be powered by the 5.6-liter V-8 from an Infiniti QX56.

The S6, S7 and S8 will all feature a new V-8 engine that Audi has detailed ahead of the Frankfurt Auto Show. The engine will also be featured in the Bentley Continental GT.

The facelifted 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe is expected to make its official world debut at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show in January.

The Endora SC-1, based on the Chevrolet Corvette, is now available for order, with production to start in the near future.

It's not really car-related, but since it uses the 5.6-liter V-8 from the Infiniti QX56, we find the company's plan to build a boat around the big engine pretty interesting. So far, Infiniti has done little more than reveal it's working on the project--but there's some special stuff in store...

Last year Mercedes-Benz started replacing its naturally-aspirated 5.5-liter V-8 engine in high-end models like the CL550 with a more powerful, yet more efficient, twin-turbocharged 4.6-liter unit. The new engine delivers up to 32 percent more power than the one it replaces yet it’s 20 percent...
