Best Sounding Engine

[ss3079 5,000+ posts]

69 Chevelle SS with the 427 - all the old(and new) muscle cars sound good with a good exhaust system(I like the deep, throaty sound)

Any 502 big block sounds good

Theres a new 01 Mustang around here, I'm not sure what engine is in it but all the guy did was add headers and an exhaust system and it sounds awsome.

199? Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo

1999 Camaro SS with SLP Loundmouth Exhaust

Let me ask you this...what exhaust system sounds the best(on any american V8) in your opinion? I think SLP, Flowmaster, and Borla make some sweet stuff.

Well ya'll are ford followers I cream at the sound of a late model LS1 with headers. Biitches would smoke cobra's and GT's.

I'm with you brother...the ls1's run better, but I still love the lt1 sound.

The best idle sound for me was a Ferrari 550 (it idled next to a 360 and a 355). But as soon as they accelerated, something sounded a little off to me, as far as my tastes.

Best acceleration sound, Dodge Viper GTS, hands down.

Best downshifting sound, which is my favorite sound in general, the Mustang 5.0.

i allways have been a flowmaster fan, put one on a truck, v8 mostly, of any kind and it sounds loud. i allways have been a fan of the 5.0's myself, i wouldnt buy a 4.6 model unless it was really really really cheap, i just dont like the body styles as much. but if u wanna hear something loud, omg at a car show i went to, a guy had a gran torino(muscle car) with a 428 cobra jet in it and a quad exhaust, (2 on each side) holy shyt that thing made ma ears hurt, i just bout creamed....

well i think that any deisel has a sweet sound like a big *** diesel truck kicks *** im a chevy guy but the new duramax's ar quiet i like the ford 7.3 liter diesels or the cumins but if ya work on the checy it sounds pretty sweet just somthin about the power and torque from them i love but as far as a gas engine any big V8 or a small ricer 4 banger can somtime sound good if they do a lot to it

new cars do sound pretty good but nothing beats a old big block. and change the exhaust all you want the sound comes from that cam you get a blown big block with a high duration cam up in the 600's running big 3" side pipes. The best sounding cars i've seen are prolly that a, 350 chevy running 9s and not sure if you can say this is good sounding its actually too loud to even hear if anyone has stood in pit road when they are tunning a nitro funny car i was less then 10 feet from it. the nitro makes you cry. i put my cup over my face to try and breath and they reved it up the sound blew the lemon aid into my mouth and nose
