I always wondered what a whipple-charged motor sounds like. I guess they do sound a little different than roots blowers...:D :D

I originally heard that clip with an Indy car in the background; you were supposed to look at the car while listening to the clip and see if you could keep from laughing.

Still cracks me up every time I listen to it (now how many of you out there make engine sounds when surfing Merc's website, eh?)

I make engine sounds at work...
...people tend to leave me alone now. :D :D

Mike, I'll bet once they get that thing running on all cylinders it will sound even better ;)

You can't fool me! That's either a 1966 Mustang 289 or a Suzuki X-6 Hustler.:D

Sounds like some of the imports that run around town with the coffee can exhaust!!!:D

Hey Crazy Horse.......remember the jingle........ "Solo Suzuki" that accompanied the X-6 debut?

Yeah sure.....me neither!

T2x;)

As a matter of fact, I do. The X-6 Hustler came out about the time I got my driver's license. But back then I was too busy looking at all the SS396 Chevelles, 428CJ Mustangs,383 Road Runners, and a host of other street muscle, that there wasn't any time for cycles. Let's not forget the reason we have big horsepower in boats today- it's because of the musclecar era of the late 70's and early 80's. And yes, I have a piece of that street muscle in my garage now. My wife and I own a very nice original 50K-mile 1970 1/2 Z-28, red/black stripes, unrestored (but repainted). Fun to drive but the cops don't have much of a sense of humor when they stop someone for dragracing these days.
