Default Nickname the New Engine!

The "Milwaukee 8" is a stupid name. Some marketing people at MOCO sat around a board meeting all day, and this is the best they could come up with?

So lets hear some. I think it looks like a Cameltoe, or Camel hump. So I will call it

CAMEL HEAD

Egg Head.....the valve cover looks like an egg carton. it will never stick, because it is not cool sounding.
