I've heard some 4.3s that sound pretty decent at low RPMs. Almost to the point of sounding like a V8. But once you put your foot into it, there's no mistaking the true identity.

:word: My neighbor, an old shade tree mechanic, had a gen1 s10 with 4.3 at idle the damn thing almost sounded like my 5.7 but they all sound like **** once they hit a couple thousand RPMs
