Go on, share with us your favourite engine sound, link to a video if you can find one so we all can experience the eargasm that you do.

One of mine that springs to mind would have to be the classic Commer TS3, cant beat the sound of a two stroke diesel with three cylinders. Such rasp.

Would have to be a triple cylinder, the Daihatsu's, Suzukis etc. all owners of these csrs would agree I,m sure.

hmm ya know, those 2 stroke engines dont mind it too much, its from my understanding that those old diesels were made out of quite heavy cast iron all the way through, a little bit of revving like that is in no way harmful, besides its only from about 450 rpm to about 700 rpm that many of those were revved at

hubby has a 350 chev motor in his jetboat and i reckon the noise it makes when idling is best.

Well funny you mention it, thats what initially reminded me of the Commer knocker. A friend sent me a pic of one of the Mount Cook Dennings coaches so I went looking for the beautiful sound they make and then remembered the TS3.

heres the sound of the 6v71:
http://www.youtube.com/watch!v=yMLROg48A3A Theres some really nice sounding aircraft but in general anything with 6 cylinders or more in a plane sounds great. Radials cannot be beaten for the sound they make.http://www.youtube.com/watch!v=LyUJIC6I7ic
