Gerald,
As you can see by my avitar, I am a V-6 fan. Having to have rebuilt 3 of them makes one a bit of an addicted junkie. I like the fact that in 99.99% of the case I'm the only one on the field that has something a bit different from the pack.
You can always throw something away but you can sometimes never get it back. Here is what a V-6 sounds like without the mufflers.
Maybe this might make you get the "itch".
