Please email or call 507-386-1726 with questions. TRADES CONSIDERED, FINANCE AVAILABLE! By 1953 the Roadmaster straight-eight was 16 years old and had become seriously dated. All of Roadmaster"s major competitors had shifted to short-stroke V-8 engines, and if Buick wanted to continue to be the paragon of longer, lower and wider, it needed one of its own. The new engine was ready in time for 1953, Buick"s Golden Anniversary year. Although the Nailhead (as it was popularly called) was nearly identical in displacement to the straight eight Fireball (322 versus 320 cubic inches), it was 13.5 inches (340 mm) shorter, four inches (102 mm) lower, and 180 pounds lighter, but with 188 horsepower, it was 11 percent more powerful. The compression ratio increased from 7.50:1 to 8.50:1 and torque increased from 280 to 300 pound-feet (410 Nm). Photos About Us Welcome to Unique Specialty & Classic Cars, Inc.
