“The zenith of the internal combustion engine was reached in 1955 with the invention of the Small Block Chevy

Then there was Vega.

We're discussing engines, not car models, but since you mention them, the Vega is what you get when all of your designers and engineers have retired and the bean counters and corporate brass design a car. As for the Volt, that's what you get when the government drives the entire design of a car.

Alas for Chevy!
