    Nothing like the sound of a straight 6❤

    Glad to see this. It is harder to find parts for the Chevy and ford sixes and they make an interesting engine to build up.

    Is there a way to go electric and still make the engine sound? Climate change concerns

    • @WagsAutomotive

      @@fjb3544 I'm sorry to say that you'll never be able to duplicate that sound unless you have an actual engine under the hood. And to each his, own, but if you have a concern about climate change, build a 292 because it's 6 cylinders not 8, put a mild camshaft in it, then instead of a carburetor, install an aftermarket fuel injection unit in place of the carburetor. Put headers on it, but install a wideband O2 sensor in the exhaust. Then have it tuned by a professional shop for maximum economy, not power. Then you can drive it, enjoy the sound and still have a smile on your face because your truck is putting out the minimum amount of pollution possible. Oh, and put aftermarket catalytic converters in the exhaust system and it'll reduce emissions even more! I think you would be amazed at the end result if you build it properly. Just run both headers into one 3 inch pipe and install the wideband in the 3 inch pipe with the converter. Good luck to you! I'd love to hear how it turns out if you build it! 😁👍

      He had a racing cam in it, headers, dual exhaust, and a 4bbl carburetor. I don't know what else he did to it, but it sounded great! 😁

    Does not sound very good. Kind of thin.

      Thin? It is a 6 cylinder, so it's not going to have the V8 sound.
