v8 engine produced by Chevrolet beginning in 1955 characterized by it's compact size compared to others engines produced during that era. It was offered in many displacements from 262 cid to 400 cid. A small-block engine is a North American V8 in a family of engines which generally have less than 6 liters (360 in) of displacement, although some derivatives have grown larger (up to 427 in, 7.0 L). Chevrolet's small-block V8 is a not a single engine but a series of famous automobile engines built on the same basic small (for a V-8) engine block.
