I've heard a lot of great engines in my relatively short life but I can't say i've heard many engines that sound better than an early mfi'd 911 motor at full song.

Naw, it was a 389 if it was a Pontiac...396 was Chevrolet.
I've driven both a 389 Goat with 3 deuces, and I've driven a 2.4 S and a 2.7 RS...you gotta trust me here, USA muscle did have a few things it did well.
Well, okay, only one thing it did well...but it did that VERY well. My tri power goat would have eaten my 2.4 S for lunch in a straight line...an easy full second in the quarter mile. That doesn't mean, now that I've sold my 2.4 S that I'm going to hunt for a tri power goat. Like I said, you can't go home again...
