An angry Clevo takes a lot of beating when it comes to pure sound output.

AP6 V8 under throttle was a nice sounder;
I have had several 304's, but the LS1 I have sounds better (and performs better too); Chevs tend to have a shallow bark unlike the potato fords; 253 was nice too; The XY 351C was the best in my opinion. |

I must say myself and Ford & Holden fans a like stopped dead in our tracks one Saturday Arvo just to listen to this 1971 XY GTHO in Vermilion fire,(Number plates were ironically: GTHOHO) pulling out of a BP Servo and then take off with a full roar down Station St in Wentworthville. I was told that 351 could even be heard from inside the back of the Video Ezy across the Road.

Most motors that have a high compression sound tinny. Low comp motors sound heaps deap and rumbly. If your tastes are tinny and high comp then the best sounding V8 would be the LS6 454 fromthe 1970 chevelle or a big block cobra jet of similar vintage. If deep rumble is your thing then the VN to VT1 injected 304's sound seriously sweet. If I didn't have my XF id have one of those. Also a 318 or 360 chrysler V8 has a good rumble in the jungle sound. |

And why is that fordman. Cause the clevo was not at the top of my list? Seriously how many tough cars are out there that don't wear a blue oval badge.

In completely stock form I dont think anything sounds better than the 220kW AU XR8's, nice idle note as well as a ball tearing noise at high rpm.
