The Hudson Motor Car Company was established in 1909 by eight Detroit businessmen to bring a mid-scale luxury vehicle to market. Originally fitted with a balanced six cylinder engine that performed so well, ales lead the company to be the third best-selling car by 1929! A huge feat considering the top two were Ford and Chevrolet. This led to the new 218.8ci Flathead Straight 8 cylinder engine introduced in 1930 to help them continue to pursue prospective buyers. Its block and crankcase were cast as one unit, itted with two overhead cylinder heads. The crankshaft was balanced like the Super Six engine they had tremendous success with. This involved 5 main bearings and 8 integral counterweights. It produced an incredible 80 horsepower that would have been very impressive for its day!
