Re: Do you know you Cylinder Index?

07 Mustang GT= 8
06 Nissan Xterra OR= 6
91 Jeep YJ= 6
03 Toyota Corolla= 4
07 Yam FJR1300= 4
76 Honda CB750A Hondamatic= 4
mower= 1
snowblower = 1

I plan to replace the Corolla this year and the Xterra next year with a v8 truck. at 37 now, I will still be behind. I need to find an old KZ1000, but I'm out of room for more vehicles here.

Re: Do you know you Cylinder Index?

16 @ 28 yrs, all Honda made (6 van, 4 car, 4 bike, 2 lawn equipment)

There have been times when my count was higher than my age, but since marriage, my toys have been in decline proportionate to the increase in kids.

12 Three motorcycles
1 chain saw
1 snow blower
1 lawn mower
6 truck
4 CR-V
1 weed whacker

That's a CI of 26 I'm 73 so it probably won't go much higher.

Re: Do you know you Cylinder Index?

Got around 80 at 44. Funny thing I got tired of forever getting toys ready for the season and storage and purged a few.

80! And a couple months short of 50 years old. :shocking:

I never thought to add up all these little cylinders. I could count probably a half dozen or more single cylinder engines salvaged from scrapped equipment, but I thought it fair to include the working stuff and the upcoming ones.

Other than the project engines, everything is fully operational. :thumbup:

I can't compete here.
I have six tractors, but all 1 or 2 cylinder motors, and one has no motor, and one spare motor - total cyl count 10.
Three vehicles
Dodge Ram 6 cyl diesel
Nissan - 6
Saturn - 4
mower and weed eater makes a total cylinder index of 28

And I am 56.

On another forum, they did a "tire index". How many tires you have air in.

Edit: Forgot the pressure washer. I guess that's 29

25 and I am 36, a little behind.

This would be fun for my Father In Law. He lives on a farm and has 4 barns full of tractors, old cars, trucks, a Vespa you name it. The barns are so full there is a 454 in the basement and a Ford flat head in the master bedroom closet. I would have to guess he is well over 100.
