why the corvette C6.R 7.0 engine is the greatest Endurance racing Engine of its time.. (and even now)
Recommend comparison video with honda D Series and Hondas new 1.5T or the old honda J series single cam V6s and the newest Honda Dohc V6s.
@Ted BlaQ hinestly. The C8.R engine is beautiful. I saw it up close and talked to an engineer at Rolex 24 this year
392 vs 5.0 vs 6.2
whatching you from the start, great thanks, dude, rly. sorry for late realising that “thumps up” button is important.
it’s may be weird, but what about russian engines? maybe tank engines be interesting or heavy duty equipment. the are not behemoths in hp, but their reliability is more than a legend.
The gen 1 small block Chevy ended up in many different cars and was produced for road vehicles from '55 until '03 and it is still produced as a crate engine.
Thank you for that info as I've been living under a rock for my entire life. Speaking of rock, I just found out there's something called rock music. Is that true?
@@jackandblaze5956 LMFAO... On a serious note, I had an older guy I worked with back in the day tell me the new (at the time) 5.7L Toyota engine was actually a Chevy small block that Toyota just tinkered with.. I couldn't deal with the sheer stupidity and had to walk away.
Jaguar and Mercedes both made use of small block GM engines the 305 and the 350. I remember working on several of these in my dad's machine shop when I was growing up.
@@smokindiesel5077one of the managers at autozone where i worked used to be a mechanic and he told me a similar story but that chevy let toyota borrow the design to get into nascar racing only, since the toyota 5.7 has nothing in common with the 5.7 sbc
I remember an Australian journalist comparing a Rover and a Lancruiser and saying that the Rover was at its toughest when parked in the garage. Cars get a beating in Australia so French, Italian, German and British cars are infamous but if you live and work way out in the red centre you drive a Toyota if you want to keep living.
I would add either the 350 Chevy or the ford 302. Both were used in pretty much everything you could think of from dump trucks to mustangs
I had a 1974 MGB-GT with a Factory Rover V-8...3.5 litre. It ran like a scalded cat, they should have sold them here in the USA but they pulled the plug on plans to do so when the first gas crisis hit. Mine was a grey market car from the UK, right hand drive.
The cc8r 4.6 is more related to the 4.6 in the terminator cobra. Also the one that definitely should’ve been on the list is the s70 which is based off the m70 bmw motor. It was in the 850 ci, 750ci and found it’s way in the mclaren F1 in the s70 form
Adding a little detail about the S70, the block is based on the M70 and the heads are based on the S50 that powered the E36 M3
@@alfredotovar8984 that’s pretty neat, I wonder if I could make s50 heads on an s70. It’s a stretch, I know
The cc8r has a pre terminator cobra/Lincoln Mark VIII teksid all aluminum blocks and 8 intake port B heads .the 03-04 terminators had iron blocks and 4 intake port C heads.
Or mark 8
Mach1 96-02 cobra
6:17 the Vibe is a badge engineered Matrix, that’s why
I had a VQ35DE before...it was in a 2011 Nissan Quest...
Also the Jensen interceptor with a 440 Dodge/ 727 drivetrain
Doing a head gasket in my ‘93 disco a couple years ago, my dads friend stops by. He was 84 at the time. He came over to bust on me about whatever junk I was working on. He looks under the hood and asked why this thing had an old Buick short block in it? 😂
2,7 diesel in Land Rover and Range Rover is also in Citroen C5 and at least in C6 and some big Peugeot and some Aussi car!!
Chrysler did sell some engine from the K-body with front wheel drive. I think 2,4 petrol to Mazda used in pickup and it was also in Mitsubishi I think.
So on and so on
Also the Detomasso Pantera used a Ford V8 in the 70s.
351 Cleveland, and later the Windsor
another pair that share the same engine is the Mitsubishi 3000 gt shares the same 6g72 engine with the 87-2007 dodge caravan. the 3000gt added dohc 24v heads a different intake and for the performance vr4 and gto models they added twin turbos. the blocks remained the same with the pistons being changed to low compression dish tops for the turbo motors
Those were notorious for blown head gaskets and leaky valve stem seals in the earlier models. Looked like a wonderful engine on paper. The 3.3-3.8 Chrysler which supplemented and eventually replaced it looked like a retarded throwback on paper but is an extremely durable and quite efficient engine. Probably the worst looking design on paper, but best in operation was the Chrysler slant 6. When I first saw pictures and drawings on the 1960 Falcon, Corvair and Valiant I immediately identified the slant 6 as being a retarded cast off design from a 1920s railroad locomotive. Fooled me.
I had a VQ35DE in the 2012 Murano
Lotus always used other people's engines. The Europa used the same block as found in the Renault Fuego, the original Elise used a small engine that was used to power water pumps in fire trucks.. the Coventry "Climax" possibly the rudest sounded name an engine ever received.
The Pontiac Vibe has the same engine as a Toyota Corolla because the Pontiac Vibe is a Toyota Corolla hatchback
also known as the Toyota Matrix.
Do one on the Nissan VK platform, I'd be interested to find out more about how it came to be. I believe used the VHR roots as well
Nice video bro. You forgot the Honda and the Saturn Vue...
American Motors used to buy engines, and transmissions from other car makers for their cars. Some of AMC's parts were made by General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.
The mazdaspeed 2.3 turbo motor is not the ford EcoBoost 2.3
It only shares the size and fact that it's turbo and direct injected. The mazda speed is an mzr motor built in connection with ford. The EcoBoost 2.3 was all ford and a complete redesign. Mazda with with thier own engines, the skyactive engines.
Shares nothing really with ford
That little Buick block also won a Formula 1 World Championship as a McLaren.
The discovery 2 was ended in 2004 but the Rover V8 was still used in a 5.0L variant for the bowler wildcat and in a 3.5L in the Freight Rover Sherpa/LDV Pilot/ LDV Convoy. The Rover V8s never really had problems with the motor just the shit Lucas Electronics that surrounded it.
The buick 215 that the rover v8 was based off of was built with a cast iron block that was notorious for rear main seal leakage. Buick sold the rights to the motor design to land rover and they created a "relative" equivalent to the 215 called the rover v8 that was forged out of aluminum. The rover v8 supplemented cylinder sleeves that were never pinned down from the factory which resulted in them braking loose as they got hotter and causing the notorious "liner slippage" that all rover v8 owners despise. Due to the horribly designed cooling system lr designed for the discovery, they're very notorious for blowing headgaskets along with the liners slipping. The 03s (4.6l v8) were predominantly the worst year of them all due to land rovers misaligned oil pump recall that caused many disco owners grief. I recently finished rebuilding my 03 discos 4.6l with a kent h180 cam, coil pack relocation kit, uprated valve springs, upgraded tappets and freshly milled heads. Believe it or not the electrical system in the discoverys arent as bad as you may think they are.
@@noahriker6995 liner only slips when the block cracks caused by some casting inconsistencies between the water jackets and cylinder walls
Head gaskets and cracked heads in Australia is common.
No mention of Nissan's LZ20 which was in the Tomica R30 Silhouette race car, which is basically an L20B with different head.
Ford also used the volvo 2.5L inline 5 turbo for the mk2 focus st and rs and also certain trims of their s-max minivans
yup! when you want to build a specialty car your best bet to buy an engine from a manufacture.
The vibe and Toyota matrix are built off the same platform too. Unreal.
one of my personal favorites is the 1st gen volvo xc90s and the 2010 noble m600 both share the same engine (yamaha/volvo 4.4l v8) except the noble uses twin turbos
The Buick you showed is a nailhead which is older and different. The one you were talking about is the 225 buick small block
Was it not 215 Buick that LR and RR did use in all years!!
@@rvarsigfusson6163 Not sure is it 225 or 215
The picture was the 215. They used similar valve covers to the "nailhead".
MGB put the Land Rover's version of the Buick 215 V8 in some of their GT's. I've got a 1970 MGB GT coupe that I thought about putting a Land Rover V8 in. Someone drove one in to the local salvage yard! A Land Rover that is!
I thought the 4.6 isnt the modular engine, rather its the lincoln intech engine, which is also 4.6 but is DOHC 4 valves with aluminum block and 6 bolt main
Don’t forget lotus also used rover engines in the 1st gen Elise
The first two generations of the Renault Espace were developed by sports car manufacturer Matra, so there's a bit more heritage there as well.
The vq engine was specially designed in order to produce that trumpet like exhaust note..hate it all you want you know it's THE BEST sounding v6 ever...
"mmmmmOOOOHHHHHnnnnn"
Arcitecture is a stretch in general. Like as u mentioned on the modular, the have different heads. The 4v modular was used only-in the lincoln mark 8, mustang(cobra), lincoln aviator and the Mercury Marauder so these cars really share that engine. Also if ur where going purely on architecture on the 215 v8 u could through in all v6s Derived from the 215, the 3.8 (turbo/supercharged and non turbo/supercharged) the 3.0 buick v6s and even the Jetfire v8(the first production turbo v8). Another neat adition would have been the shelby series 2 which had a version of the northstar built for indy racing. Whose block was shared with the Oldsmobile aurora(the superior olds variant of the ns).
That's what I was thinking, the 3.8 and 4.2 v6 are the same basic motor somehow. I could buy 3.8 lifters for a Commodore for land Rover v8s
They’re called modular for a reason. Ford used the 4.6 on EVERYTHING. Super cars, trucks, crown Vic’s, SUVs, Mustangs… you name it. They’re great because pretty much any mechanic can work on them. They’re very basic and cheap. You can go buy a new block for a couple hundred bucks! Wish Ford would bring it back.
@@angelgjr1999 I know they are all modular but there are variants as the 5.4 and 5.0 coyote are also modular plus aluminum or iron blocks different heads and quite a few other differences. I was just pointing out the same architecture doesn't mean the engines are the same.
@@ScrotieJohnson Same basic engine design. Iron block, aluminum heads. Very interchangeable parts.
One engine every body forgot about is the honda c series used in the nsx and used in honda legend it's actually built on Hondas formula 1 v10 90°engine and with my experience a stock block it withstands 1000 hp it has all the features of a high performance engine like 8 bolt mane caps and all forged internals and much more
Certain Toyota forklifts once used Daihatsu ED-10 850 cc 3-bangers with crossflow single overhead cam hemi-head engines. I've got the fuel-injected ED-20, in my Daihatsu
The Pontiac Vibe was mentioned sharing an engine with a sports car and in that segment you said V6. No Pontiac Vibe had a V6. The 2zz in the Pontiac Vibe GT and the Toyota Matrix XRS were all 4 cylinder engines.
The V6 is the 2gr Toyota engine , used in the Camry's, sienna's etc. Also used in Lexus's...ES350,RX350, etc.
He also called it a turd, but the vibe and matrix are wondering hatch backs
The new ford Gt shares its engine with the Ford Expedition and the ford mustang V6 shares it's engine with the Ford Transit.
EVERY UK hot rodder knew the Rover V8 was derived from an Oldsmobile unit ! 😁👍🏼......but what about the first of the new MINI’s having the same engine as the Chrysler Neon ? 😫
Oldsmobile only did more to refine it. If you look closely, you can see roots stemming from the old Nailhead and from the Buick 340
@@al_dente4777 Olds and Buick used different heads on the same block. Olds didn't care for the Buick "nailhead " approach.
BMW Mini was a Peugeot platform and powertrain
The Rover V8 was also used in TVR sports cars.
Not as remarkable, but my grandpa’s 1960s AMC Rambler had an in-line 6 that Jeep tossed into Cherokees until…the 2000s? 🤔
You forgot about the Camry 2ARFE that Pappadakis (sp?) built
Great video, but I had to skip forward because I literally couldn't stand hearing the mispronunciation of Renault one more time. It actually gave me chills 🤣 I know it sounds stupid, but just being honest lol. Great content though, and it blew my mind learning that Koenigsegg's have Ford motors in them! #CrownVicsareeternal
Lotus and aston martin also have mercedes engines
Boomer here, We knew, that's we why we have grease under our fingernails and we all could drive a stick before we got our licenses.
Chrysler crossfire used the Mercedes Benz M113 V8 engine.
The Crossfire was an SLK and used the MB V6.
I actually did know all of these.
My dad has a 2014 fusion eco boost with 320,000 miles and as far as I know there have been no major problems
Wow actually? I have a 1.5l Ecoboost and was worried about longevity but this makes me feel better, which Ecoboost engine is it?
@@lethargicstove2024 not sure
I’m all ready to wade in defending the darling of the British perfect market but I realised I drive a British made, Italian powered car on a chassis designed in conjunction with Honda and sanity is not my strong suit 🤪🤪🤪
The Buick 215 design was sold to Rover, then the design rights were bought back. Only, GM turned it into an iron block V6 engine. This eventually via refinement became the 3800 V6.
Some later AMC Gremlins and Spirits actually used a Porsche inline four from the original 924.....
That was a VW truck engine in the 924.
@@anvilsvs The Porsche 924 used an Audi 100 LS block with an overhead cam head
@@al_dente4777 Which was also used in VW trucks. This doesn't mean it's bad, After all, the Viper used a derivative of a RAM pickup engine.

Chevy has a 4 banger that has been used since the 1970s, and the more modern vehicles in Brasil still use it though updated the core concept is the same, iron block aluminum head 8v flex fuel 1978 all the way up to 2022 I believe. Went from carb to tbi to mpfi to flex fuel mpfi, and I think flex fuel direct injection turbo now...
I wonder if this is related to the "iron duke" 4 cylinder as it's known in the US. It was only ever an overhead valve, iron head engine in the US I think.
This is the Iron Duke, and it powers the all the goofy looking mail trucks to this day.
1962 Chevy II four was a cut down of the new 6 that started that year. And that's the 2.5 you mentioned.
@chickenfishhybrid44 sort of yeah, there is a 1.0, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4 and lastly a 2.5
@@anvilsvs No, it isn't. The Pontiac Iron Duke was a clean sheet design from the 1970's. Mercury Marine sells a 3.0 liter I/O engine for boats that is what you are talking about, a "stovebolt" inline 6 with two middle cylinders removed. And it sounds like a tractor, and it STINKS when it runs!
There's a reason the British never manufactured computers - they couldn't work out how to make them leak oil 😅
If a British or Italian car doesen't leak, it only means that there's nothing in the pan
the Mercedes Benz 560 SEL weighs about 4,000 before options are added that in that case the # in the name of the car denotes the size of the engine 5.6 L which is a 340 cubic in engine I remember this because my Childhood best friend Margaret's mom May, May always drove an S Class starting with a 1986 W126 S 560 SEL and Daughter Margaret drives an AMG C 63 S Convertible Iridium Silver Metallic/red pepper/black Nappa Leather Upholstery. the father always drove a Cadillac granted he was in the Mafia

Tellin ya what id never buy a british car. Not until our american stop being so good to me. All my chevy and dodge V8’s have been rock solid reliable to me
I know where you are going with this already and just NO.
For the CC8 and CC8S there was still a bit of commonality in stuff like main-caps, thrust washers, head gasket, head bolt pattern, oil pump, and main seals, but there are basically no Ford parts in it.
It’s a lot of digging to get to get the whole story but at that time, (CC8S): The block and heads are based on the Ford Modular but designed by Koenigsegg and custom, along with the cams, and timing set. The rest of the parts are mostly off the shelf, aftermarket parts, forged crank, rods, pistons, valves, etc.
By that measure it’s like saying a LO2 350 in a 1989 Chevy truck is the same engine as a LQ9 in 2009 Chevy truck, just because they both have 4.400” bore centers and the pistons will fit in either hole.
After Koenigsegg produced all 6 of those cars, yes 6, they went to a 100% in house design because most of the few parts they had left in the engine that were actually Ford, weren’t up to the task, or at least Christian’s standards.
S-Class engine? Kind of a insulting the SL-Class which is closer to the Pagini.
I don’t understand what the trouble is the engine in the 350 Z sounds wonderful straight piped I think you need to get your ears checked my friend
No doubt about it ! They sound like an angry wookie with a megaphone 😂 I love their sound !
Just so y'all know that 4.6 is the same one in the sn95 and new mustangs it's a beast of a engine
Lol not the same exact but similar engine......you mean similar like they all have cylinders, pistons, rods, cranks, valves, heads, blocks, air and fuel supply sytems, lubrication and cooling systems you mean that kinda similar 😂
That 4L land rover engine was incredibly reliable throughout the UK, I'm kinda confused why it's got so many bad reviews only ever coming from the us
I can answer that. So, due to strict emissions, they had to use a different thermostat. This thermostat literally didn't work as it should and literally cooked the engine from the inside. A common fix is to use the TD5 thermostat that is found on the V8s in the other parts of the world to prevent damage to the engine.
You can thank the epa for that silly thermostat rule.
The USA is a massive country with hugely varying climates, and long distances with mountain ranges to climb. We drive up mountain passes in Africa style heat at 80MPH, expecting no breakdowns. The old Buick V8 proved too feeble to withstand this usage. Britain is tiny, no real mountains, and cool climate!!
Also, our idea of reliability is a bit different, our (American) cars are mostly rubbish, but the powertrains are reliable under careless use and poor maintenance.
@@timmcooper294 Not really, I thought this also , But a lot of Brtis will take their cars through the channel tunnel to other parts of Europe where the climate is similar to that of US. Not to mention these cars are in several even harsh places around the world, Africa and Australia are some examples. Also the UK has MOTD where you have to not only get it smogged, your car has to be physically ok on the outside. You have no choice but to maintain it until it rusts itself to death.
On top of that in the States they over charge you on repairs and try to tell you its a luxury car.
Its one of the easiest cars to work on but yet they charge an arm and a leg
The 215 isn't as fragile as people think its just a bit underpowered. Im more of the fan of the 300TDI and TD5.
@@Hairybarryy "Not really" HaHa! Been into Land Rovers since the 1980's, and personally watched the history play out here in the states, been to Europe, too.......Tiny place compared to the states. Soooo many of these cars went to the crusher here on the west coast with dead engines but otherwise totally solid. These engines die out west in the heat !! Say all you want, but you can't change history........ It was such a shame to see otherwise good vehicles scrapped in shocking numbers due to the over-rated feeble weakling of an engine.... I can never forgive it for that !!
I love old Land Rovers, but there are fundamental, factual reasons why many engines that did well in Britain were notoriously unreliable here in the big wide open spaces. We ask way more of our engines here, and we take less care of them. Long term stamina and the ability to withstand lack of maintenance is the key to survival here.
This engine killed so many good Land Rovers / Range Rovers..... What a shame...
@@timmcooper294 I mean engines just dont die from heat. There is scientific reasoning behind overheating engines on an engineering standpoint. Heat needs to be circulated away from the source properly. If it dosent this will cause damage. The thermostat is what caused a lot of these engines to fail. When the thermostat failed it will close. To say that these engines just failed from overheating shows you have no idea what you are talking about. If people actually did their research these cars would have lived a lot longer. all it needed was a thermostat and a accurate temperature gauge. I have a discovery 1 with 224,000 miles on the ODO. I live in a dry and hot climate of califonia near mountains. I beat the heck out this car going up and down trails every weekend. The engine while weak is stout and it doesn't overheat.
Bottom line is these cars fail due to stupidity and carelessness
Not the vq hate 😭

The Buick 215 V8 had become the "Big Block" of the entire British Automotive Industry (aka British Leyland) for second half of the 20th century. Whenever a British carmaker needed extra power/torque for any vehicle or for the top of the line of whatever vehicle they without fail reached for the Buick V8. For an entire generation of British gearheads the 3.5 liter Rover V8 was considered the performance engine and received not only much love and devotion but also development ending in 2006 as a 5 liter EFI V8.
He said it was a 4.6??
Same block from 3.5 to 5.0
Which is funny that Buick didn’t want to deal with that 215 and just tossed it to the highest bidder. I’ve worked on a good few but god are they not great motors.
Ah, I think they used the Olds head version rather than the nail head Buick.
@@aydenjones5733 Absolute terrible motors. This is coming from someone who owns a 2001 Disco II. It gets terrible fuel mileage, with absolutely ZERO power!! Lol
Fun fact: the old Buick iron block v8 engine was used to start the sr-71 blackbird before they started to use chevy engines.
"Never buy a British car". *Unless its a Lotus Evora.
The Buick 215 aluminum engine did have problems with Q.C. HOWEVER, in 1964, Buick went with a cast iron block and used the aluminum heads, increased bore and stroke to yield 300 c.i.d. {4.9 litres}. Changing to iron heads in 1965. The design rights and patents were then sold to British Leyland in 1968 The odd-fire 225 v6 version was sold to AMC for use in the venerable Jeep cj series untill 1973. This was the engine GM bought back in 1975 for use in its compact Vega/Astre and Monza varients.
I think it’s pronounced ess-pass, not ess-pace. Love you vids keep up the good work
It doesn’t surprise me about McLaren. Their cars are garbage
Had a disco 2 with a cracked engine block explains y later 12v p pump swap
Ford Focus Rs hatchback uses Volvo 5 cylinder white block turbo engines same as the V70 T5. And the Delorian uses the v6 "PRV" engine wich is a Volvo Renault Peugot collaboration and a total POS. Also found in the Volvo 760 luxury estate.

You forgot the Volvo B8444S V8 motor (S80 and XC90) that also powers the Noble M600...

Wow 600 hp from a boosted Ford 4 valve is pretty low numbers....I mean I feel like you could get 500 naturally aspirated with a decent build then 1100 on boost easily using the 4 valve mod motors. Sorry I'm just confused why such a performance oriented company didn't take advantage of off the shelf parts at least...off the shelf rotating assembly, valvetrain parts, and positive displacement supercharger could put down 4 digit numbers if pushed....
Haven't watched the video but I know you're talking koenigsegg, they had later models that produces way more with different head castings
But also the ford 4.6 really is just a terrible engine naturally aspirated. 500 NA is a max effort build on a 4v 4.6 if you're not stroking/boring. Realistically to run on pump gas with boost your pre boost engine may make 435ish horsepower at most due to low compression. Put it this way, they're adding over 200 horsepower to the 03 cobra engine essentially while running about the same boost number. Pretty impressive.
Long term reliability, cost,
@@Prestiged_peck There are 03-04 cobra setups around that make 900 wheel hp... some of them were built in some guys home garage...I was just thinking why couldn't they do better than some guy with a limited budget building it in his garage??
@Bentboybbz how often do those 900 wheel cobras make 100k miles of abuse before needing another rebuild. You've seen the videos of koenigsegg doing everything to their cars but dropping them from orbit plus you have to factor in that those garage guys get to just remove every emissions system from their car illegally and have no real repercussions in most parts of the U.S. at least. Koenigsegg had to meet all factory emissions standards.

The Ariel Atom used the GM LSJ 2.0 Ecotec engine at one time but now uses the Engine from a Civic Type R.
Tha Saab 9-7X used a GM 6.0L LS2 V8 and the Saab 9-2X used the Subaru EJ 2.0 and later 2.5 Turbo charged 4 cylinders as it was basically a face lifted Impreza WRX.
Saab also used the German Ford V4 and the Standard Triumph inline Four. As for Triumph, the joke used to be that TR stood for "tractor" because the early four cylinder cars used the engine from Ferguson retuned to run at higher speed.
The old Nissan 720 pickup Z24 engine l was built as a forklift engine.
Unsurprising to find yet another American without much nice to say about English cars. The Rover V8 is a fabulous engine - provided you know what you're doing with it, which most Americans don't. There's a reason they made them for so long, and fitted them to so many cars. Not being able to diagnose a common fault that has long had a simple fix isn't really the fault of the engine...
You missed a couple i.e. the Vibe is a Toyota Matrix and the Geo Prizm is a Toyota Corolla. Use to work at O'Reilly's lol
If we didn't have a part in stock for one I would look it up in the other one and it would be the very same thing and most likely we would have that part in stock
Remember the Jeep DJ. The former Post Office Jeep has the same engine as the 1st generation Chevy Nova. The Chevy 11.."
You forgot the the flathead Ford V8, it was used by the Germans in WW2 and was big in land speed cars and Drag racing.
The second generation International Scout 11 Traveler and Terra have the same diesel engine as the Nissan Patrol..
Renault is pronounced reNOE, not reNAWLT.
You coulda just said that it shares the same motor as the cobra terminator 😂
bc it does
A lot of Car companies do this Nissan and Toyota Honda not uncommon.
You do realize that the Ford modular 4.6 had either 2 valve over head cam heads and 4 valve dual over head cam heads
And there's a three valve version.
Have you done any videos on Yamaha and the engines they have built for cars?
Like was used in the Volvo xc90 and s80.. 4.4 L, 311bhp, then Noble put it in some cars, with twin turbo, 600+bhp, and 60 degree banks as well.... Cool motor...
Aluminum nailheads in Land Rovers, what a strange world we live in.
The block casting issue was only an issue in 2003. 2004 maybe?
I think you're the only one I've heard, say the nissan 3.5 sounds bad. Lol. Hearing it in racinf forum, the old 350s, and 370s in the old SRO Touring/GT series sounded epic. And its cool they have their own v6 sound that you pick out in a crowd of other race cars too.
What? VQs are pretty universally thought to sound like shit with most exhaust setups lmao
@@chickenfishhybrid44 2nd person ever to say they sound like shit..
Lmao
