But you've only got 4 cylinders!  ;) :lol:

But they can sound great at high revs. My old MG Midget engine was red lined at 8000 with max power at 7200. And even though it was at least 4 cylinders short of a proper engine (!) it did sound glorious once on cam  :twisted: And keeping up with 4.7 litre Cobra's with 1400cc'c along the straights was always good for the ego! And even better when I could nip past under braking  :dance:

AHHH cm'on,

" 'taint wot you got its how yer use it boy!"

my old hilman imp used to sound like a bag of rusty nails on tickover.

but once on the cam it sang as sweet as a gelded choirboy.

(mind you it DID have a lumpy development cam in the block)
