Oldsmobile Rocket V8

The Revolutionary Rocket V8 a Favorite for '50s Hot Rodders!

When Oldsmobile's new "Rocket" V8 debuted in 1949 in was a true game changer for General Motors as it was the first mass-produced overhead-valve, high-compression V8 engine from the division.

Featuring an advanced short-throw layout, the design provided reduced friction and wear. Starting at a displacement of 303 cubic inches, this first generation Olds Rocket engine grew to 394 cubes for 1964. This hot-rodded example is adorned with six Stromberg 94 two-barrel carburetors mounted on an Offenhauser aluminum log intake manifold, topped-off with anodized injector stacks.
