i got challenged by an LS1 the other day. Was running on the freeway and was in 5th gear..i saw an opening and downshifted to 4th (put me at like 3500-4000 rpms) and floored it...got past him and slowed down a little. He got in behind me and kept up with me almost all the way to where I was going, even followed me off the freeway!

When I got to a stoplight, he got up next to me..threw a rev (it was a LS1 trust me... deep throaty rumble from his car) and when the light turned green we both went. needless to say i got my *** handed to me in a bag. But the point is that a LS1 thought I sounded good enough to race.

I also had a 1970 Z28 owner come up to me after I pulled up to a car cruise and ask me what kind of muffler system I had. After replying it had a cutout and seeing the puzzled look on his face, I told him "It's a 6 cylinder, thats why it's so quiet." His response was "what?? no way.."

Guy was like 50-something.

Don't think that a 6 cylinder exhaust doesn't sound great. If done right they can sound pretty good. And the raspyness is due to having less cylinders and the engine winding up quicker. If you listen to a v8 at like 6000 rpms, they don't sound to great either (little raspy, just a little deeper due to more displacement/cylinders) </font>[/QUOTE]that SS just wanted to race. that doesnt mean he thinks your a v8. if i had a SS, i would pick on v6ers all the time. the old guy obviously isnt that smart cause i can tell weather any car is dumping or not.

in reply to ya there blldoog...

i honestly doubt you can tell the difference.
i have friends that have v8 fbodies that tell me my car sounds better than theirs..

had a friend tell me that my car sounds the same as theirs (a friend with a LT1 Trans Am ported heads)

so whatever. you guys believe what you want. if you dont like your 6, sell it and get an 8. im tired of the 6 owners whining about how their car isnt as good, they wish they got an 8...

if thats the case, then why are you here?

wow....way to bring up an old post. :rolleyes:


i have no problem owning a 6. maybe its just me but i know the difference between a 6 and an 8 when it comes to exhaust tones. you can make it seem simular but there are slight things that give it away
