Wow, I see what you mean about forgetting things. 
After I added up the usual stuff, cars, trucks, tractors, lawn mowers, weed wackers, leaf blowers, motorcycles, mopeds, I starting thinking about the unusual things. generators, Nitro RC engines, compressors (including the little cheap 12 volt ones), model steam engines.... I know I will have to edit and add more that I forgot about, but so far I have 77
I REALLY need to clean out my garage! I don't throw anything out 
EDIT: OK, I reread your original post and see that you said "internal combustion engines", and steam engines, so I have to subract 8 for the compressors, but forgot a 4 wheeler and a moped +2 so new total is 71

I love these questions...I did the same thing with valves...since I had 2 Lincoln Mark VIII's, both with 32-valve V8's.
anyway...lemme see:
