The Buick straight-eight was an overhead valve design, while the Oldsmobile straight-8 and Pontiac straight-8 straight-eights were flathead engines. ... Cadillac, the luxury brand of General Motors, stayed with their traditional V8 engines.

I saw the straight 8 question about GM engines and I cannot think of any GM engines that had straight 8's. As remember there were some Ford flatheads that were 8 cylinders, and I believe I once saw a flathead Chrysler industrial 8cyl. Cadillac had a V-16 in the early days, it might be possible there was an 8cyl offshoot from that.... I would have to find my 1953 Motor manual to verify that.... It included tractors and trucks.
