Whats your Cylinder Index?

[GtpKo]

I got this idea from a radio show "Garage Logic" over in Minnesota back when I lived there and I thought it would be cool to do here.

Basically your C.I. or Cylinder Index is the total of cylinders in all of the cars/trucks/cycles/lawnmowers/etc that you personally own. No company vehicles or whatever. As long as you own it(or you & the bank) and it has a piston. Rotaries don't count either.

A good C.I. should be equal to your age.

For example, when I was 25, I owned 2 vans, 2 small cars, and a Kawasaki (V8 x 2, + I4 x 2, + 1cyl) = 25 CI.

Now my CI is 6. My age is 34 so hmmm, not good.

Whats yours?

me personally:

CI: 9 (4cyl scoob, 4cyl CBR1000, 1cyl lawn mower)

my household (considering i work on all of them) goes up by 6 for jackies jeep and 4 more for her ninja250.

 

[matt5112]

six

 

[BillBoost37]

Bonne 6
Regal 6
Truck 8
Mower 2
Weed killer 1
Leaf blower 1
Power washer 1
Quad 1

I'm at 26

 

[Poil336]

GP = 6
P.O.S-10 = 8
if blown up motors count, i have 10 more... i have 24 pistons but only 6 are in use at the moment, i'm failing

 

[GtpKo]

Yes blown up motors count, as long as there is a piston in a cylinder.

If you had a V8 missing a piston then it would count as 7. Running or not.

And most of us won't come close to our age in CI, but thats the target

 

[Poil336]

well, their out of the cylinder at the moment, but i have two blocks. but one block only has 5 useable cylinders.

i'm making a calculus equation out of this b!tch

 

[FordMan77]

Lets see...

84 Vic- 8
89 Vic- 8
74 MGB- 4
74 MG Midget- 4
87 Nissan- 4
95 T-bird-8
03 CV Sport- 8
95 Bonne- 6
00 GPGT- 6
Mower(s)-3
Weed Eater-1
Blower-1
Power Washer-1
Blown up 3.8L-5
Blown up 5.0-8 (rod bearings bad- but pistons there)
Air Compressor-2

My total is 77. And I'm only 34 I have tooooo much s**t.

 

[PurpleGuy]

CI:17
I'm 17, pretty close i'd say. lol

 

[SilvaMan61]

ive got a whoping 6

 

[Lsick7]

14. The GTP has 6, possibly 5 since it's been parked and found a smashed plug, and I have a Fiero in a field I own with 8.

 

[TheOtherNick]

GA-4
truck 8
gp 6
harley 2

So im at 20 and I turn 20 in 3 days.

 

[redlinepontiac]

ci-30 age 20
(gtp-6
(05gto-8
(72gto-8
(73GA-8
(skateboard-0

 

[JarenSTi]

6

so an 18 year old should have 2 to 3 cars? 10+8 or 8+6+4. or be badass and have 12+6

 

[01gpgt01]

GP-6
Eclipse-6
im 32

 

[Spartan GL]

GTP-6

Might have more after this tour...:th_king-normal:

 

[Bio248]

(skateboard-0

hell yes, i knew you skated.

 

[aligater]

15 V8's = 120
1 4banger = 4
4 GP engines = 24


theres probably more, that the ones i can think of right now

CI 148, Age #^

EDIT 1 motoskeeter and lawnmower and a weedwacker

EDIT 2 air compressor and my mini air saw has a piston in it!

CI total 154

 

[stealthee]

Lets see, I'm 30

Grand Prix - 6
Stealth - 6 (x3)

So thats 24 for me personally. If I still had the other 2 3000GT's then wed be at 36. If we added all the cars we have ever owned it would be ridiculous.

Now if you add the rest of the household

Neon - 4
Neon dirt track car - 4
Grand Cherokee - 6
Cherokee - 6
Caliber - 4
G5 - 4

and we are now up to 52.

 

[boostedcompg]

comp=6
Altima=6
Lawn mower= 1
Yamaha=2
Weed wacker=1
Various motors in my shed =14

So I have 30 and am a few years from that. Woohoo I'm doin ok
