[QUOTE="oilwell1415, post: 9671147, member: 58424"] The two traditional GM and Ford firing orders are the same. The only reason they look different on paper is because they number the cylinders differently. Even if you look at the two different Ford firing orders, they sound the same. How the engine sounds is a function of all the other different things mentioned in the thread, and all of the "new" engines sound different than their traditional counterparts. IMHO, this is mainly because of emissions requirements. Small bores have better emissions that big bores. Small bores also have less room for valves. Smaller valves dictate smaller ports, and smaller ports mean port efficiency has to be better. Efficiennt ports sound different than junk ports. [/QUOTE]
