No worse than our VQ's sounding like a truck engine.

I had a 2-door 2002 Chevy Blazer with the 4.3L V6 and 5-speed. The first time I took a Z out for a test drive, I immediately thought it sounded an awful lot like that 4.3L!

The VQ IS a truck engine.....that one comes in a 4.0 variety.

A 4.3 Chevy was just an old 350 with the front two cylinders chopped off.
