Trouble sleeping

So I woke up at 3:50 this morning. I wondered if that could be a solid-lifter LT1 or maybe a Rallye 350. 351 rolled around and I knew that had to be a Cleveland. 400 had to be a Ram Air IV and 401 was definitely a nailhead. 409 brought the Beach Boys singing in my head. 413 was surely a Max Wedge. 421 was a Super Duty in a swiss-cheese car. 426 had to be the elephant motor, while 427 was definitely a COPO. 428 was no doubt a Cobra jet. 429 had to be a Boss Nine. Now I was wide awake. 440 was surely a Six Pak. 454 was an LS7. 455 rolled around and I decided it was a W30. Now I could go back to sleep.

They say that men that go to bed with problem sleeping often wake up with solution at hand!

That coincides with the time matching an engine displacement. It seems I often get up at some engine cid. I guess car guys recognize that stuff.

Woke up at 4:03, wondered if the 7a(m) heads would make time go faster...
