The other Hemi cars just don't have the same sound to me.

Hi Jim, I never thought of that. A while back I commented to a SS racer as we watched the end of a stock session how great John Shaul's car sounded as he ran. Without blinking an eye he said your car sounds the same, I said wow, that's pretty cool, too bad it's not as fast. I was surprised to hear that though.

Johnny Perkins, out of Jessup, Ga, had a '65 Dodge hemi with aluminum front end.... He had "Bend it Buy It" on the front fenders....Thought that was the best sounding auto in the country and this was in '65 or '66....

They sure do! I may be somewhat biased, but just stand anywhere near the Mega Maniac when it is running, and you hear one real nasty cackle from a 5.7... And that is with stock rockers, lifters, and push rods.

Yea I'm partial but an AMC sounds wicked! I can't count how many times some trackside "expert" has come up and told me how much faster I'd go if I didn't take the RPM up so high. My D/S engine barely hit 6800 RPM and they would tell me I was leaving and shifting at around 8500 RPM. This SS/H engine was only good for about 7200 RPM.
But the next engine may be quite a bit higher...:D

Try these!
