I've never understood why there needs to be more than one or two different v8s anyway. Just use one v8 for the trucks and one for the cars. If you want different horsepower for different models of cars, you can just tune the engines differently. By only having 1 engine that can be used in all cars, you would save a lot on manufacturing costs.

Does anyone know why we need multiple versions of the same engine?
