Firemack Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I was out driven the 8V71 tonight, and it does sound great. I think to improve the sound I am going to make it a dual exhuast- kind of rare for a Hahn firetruck, but that way I enjoy it in stereo!Firemack Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/22258-oh-how-i-miss-the-daily-sound-of-a-6v92-238-detroit-in-our-gmcs/#findComment-95009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
