Whats your thing!!??

I don't really like the sound of my weedeater six cylinder, but the turbo sounds make up for it. The big block roller engine in my Nova sounds awesome with open headers at 10000 RPM.

Given the existing choices, V8. Write-in vote: Inline six with glass packs. Really retro. (Turn up the speakers.)

Block me! There's something alluring about my Series 2 bark that I have grown to love. It's obnoxious and raspy, nothing like a refined 24 valve of modern day.

They have a very distinct startup sound, I love it. Probably one of the better sounding V6s.

I'm also missing the lack of an option for the inline 6 family.

I'll just listen to my truck's 250 in the corner.

Wrong brand, but right sound.

Something about old rumbling Inlines is just right.

Did someone say lumpy?

Without both compression and overlap any engine will sound like crap. Low compression and high overlap sounds like a boat (basically any 80s factory engine with a 3/4 race cam - you know who you are). High compression and low overlap sounds like a minivan (because emissions).

My Hellcat and TBSS both sound like sh*t compared to to the wagon. Adding a louder exhaust (no mufflers of any value) doesn't make a better sounding car.

The Monte is just an odd duck.

I'll take a super high-compression, huge cammed, roots blown, big block anything any day - a total earth shaker.
