12 Of The Best Sounding Carbureted Engines | Ep. 1 

"Can be pain in an ass" Fucking dead 😂😂😂😂

There is beauty in imperfection

My dad had a 1985 Chevy C10 pick-up with a 305 V8 and a Quadrajet carb. The intake was louder than the exhaust and the sound of the secondaries opening up at WOT is a sound I'll never forget.

Yamaha didn't leave, Nissan said the engine sucked so Yamaha took their design to Toyota creating the 2000GT, Nissan regretted this

Those air cooled Tatra v8's sound absolutely gorgeous. Much respect to your next door neighbors for designing a bulletproof engine. So many excellently designed vehicles come from Czech/Slovak plants. Tatra trucks are great, Skodas are legendary in Rally, and Aero Vodochody makes what I consider the most reliable/trustworthy single engine jet, the L39 Albatros, ever made.

there's nothing better than my 20v 4ag on 8000 rpm!!!

It's so weird to hear Škoda pronounced right, after so many car videos.

11:44 That Alfa Romeo, was my second car back then.It was a second generation 1983 Alfasud. It never let me down and had a tremendous handling, due to FWD and the underbody. The suspension was awesome and a very nice detail was the front disc brakes were mounted close to the gearbox. This ensured a much less weight that had to be dampened out by the front wheels. It drove almost like a gocart and one would have to fuck up really bad to rip this vehicle of the road. It was almost like it had glue on all four tires. Unfortunately, it had one major issue...the red plague, also called rust.

Me when driving fast Woooohoooo Me when someone else is driving fast Slow down you're gonna hurt someone.

I think it is amazing how well the Nissan/Datsun L series engines sounded considering how popular and affordable those cars were.

CARBURETTED ENGINES FTW!!! I LOVE THEM!!! NICE WORK BRO!!!

You missed the Q-jet. Particularly pain in the ass to make work, but when they do it is like the vintage varient of V-tec (they are a 2 barrels normal drive, when you step on it the secondaries open up (another 2 barrels for 4 barrels total)for an extra 100 HP it seems...also sound like the doors of hell opened up lol)

The Toyota corolla Sprinter AE92 4A-FC carburetored sounds absolutely awesome. It's very smooth like Jazz 😎

3:53 best revving sound 🤩

Love these videos man. Looking forward to more.

I love your videos so far, great job.

Every classic high displacement v8 with carbs sounds amazing

Your English pronunciation is getting much better since your earlier voiceovers. I think you'll have it down very well in another year.

You've been killing it as always bro, keep it up! 👌🏻🙌🏻❤

VisioRacer - I love the videos, man! Keep up the good work! 😄😄

love the sound of a flathead v8!

The S20 from the Hakosuka should have been included. Best sounding carbureted engine of all time.

Love your work man!! keep it up!

Wonderful video! Had engine's and car's on here totally not expected. Thank you!

Dude your videos are great, also not much youtubers respond to comments, but you do and that makes you cool)))

The L24 sounds so gooood ❤❤

I love the clean minimalistic look of carbureted motors.

I like how you show the engines too and not just the cars now, channel is getting better man!

when i see L series engine, i say my time its payed great video

The skoda sounds awesome

Awesome video as usual.

Love your narration. great work. thanks

You should have included the Ford 1.8 / 2.0 BDA using twin 50 DCOE Webers...

"Imperfect"? "Pain in the ass"? Carbureted engines are EASY to tune - just turn the screws.

Enjoyed viewing those classics. Well done.

VisioRacer: While I love all of your videos (especially any including the 4AGE), this one might be my favorite. Keep them coming and best to you ! Great information!

Saying that a carburettor is less complicated than EI is pure conjecture :D

carburated engines do deffinitely sound amazing, my favorite is obviously Skoda 130 RS ( I wonder how many of the English native speakera were surprised by how it is pronounced correctly...) and each fuel injecting system has its up/downsize, but still: there is none with 100% efficiency

Thanks for the beautiful video.

Nice vid! Good explanation and easy to watch. Keep the vids comming 👍

Cool video! Could you do a video about the over head cam Cosworth ford engines? BD, YB, DFV? And some of the applications and power outputs and racing histories? Maybe including some production cars that came with the motors that were used in racing?

your english is getting better with each video bro keep it up👌👍✊👏🖐🖑🤘🖖

Genius level video. "Redline for a good time!" 👌

So glad the 440 made this list although the 426 Hemi deserved to be up here too!!! Great list!

the the 240z sound made me wet. So good.

Can you make a video of best OEM force induction sounds. Great channel🔝👍🏼

I love your 2 stroke engine videos

You want to hear something old and carbed that sounds surprisingly good. An old aircooled VW beetle converted to twin weber 2 barrels (and usually a bump in displacement, cam, compression bump, etc), a far cry from whistling lawn mower sound of a stock one.

l24 gave me goosebumps

Flat plane or cross plane, I love the sound of a carburated V8. There's something about the inefficient fuel delivery and irregular firing sequence that is music to my ears. And you left out the Gen 1 Chevy Z28 with the cross ram intake and the Pontiac Ram Air IV.

Thank you Visio for such a wonderful video! The 4A-GE short stroke 1.6L toyota engine at 6:15 sounds terrifying. Wow! That thing seems like it is a full 100% race engine. But nothing sounds better than a V8.

I really loved when you said Skoda properly. Very nice video, thank you for sharing it!

8:38 ricers wet dream

"Can be pain in a ass" 😂

Liked this video because of what you said about Alfa Romeo. keep them coming bro !

That was great!!

I admit I'm crazy about carburetted engines' noise. Their warm growl has no comparison with the engines of today, you could really feel them getting "happier" as they warmed up. With that said, and I might be biased, the best sounding carburetted engine is the Ferrari Colombo V12 which isn't as rare as you said because instead of just the 6 twin-choke Webber from the 250 GTO as you showed, there were also versions with 3 4-barrel Webber carburettors on the 250 GT SWB, 250 California, and 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso or even with 3,3 litres as the 330 GTO, the 250 LM and 250 P. There's nothing carburetted on Earth that sounds that glorious! You migh argue a Ford 427 V8 or a Chevy 308 V8 sound more menacing (and were better options on this list than for instance the Alfa flat-6 or the BMW straight-6) but that's exactly why I love it so much: it's just glorious without the need of being ferocious. It sings without shouting. I waited until the end for you to have added the Ford srtaight-4 from the Escort RS Mk1 or the Alpine A110 1600S but to no avail... also you have to agree the Toyoa 2000GT sound better that that retro-fitted 4-banger, right? Last but not least, you do know the Miura wasn't Ferrucio's first model, right? There were the 350 GT and the 400 GT 2+2 before that... the Miura was premiered almost 15 years after that famous scuff with Enzo! Given that, keep up the good car videos!

Awesome video! Love this one...but it makes me miss my El Camino :( Had a 355ci circle track engine with tunnel ram intake and dual 390 Holley double pumpers....talk about a pain to tune, with 2x four- corner adustments you had to swap alot of jets :) Well-tuned carbs can match or in some cases, exceed the power output of a fuel injection system. This is due to the constant fuel flow of the carb whereas the injectors only pulse the fuel once per cycle. But unless you have really deep pockets, driving a dual-carb V8 just isn't affordable anymore.

+VisioRacer - another cracking video, thank you. And I still say that the subtitles are not needed... fantastic job! PS - they all sound fantastic, but I think the Nissan was the pick of the bunch for me.

love this video

The original 3.5 litre Rover V8 sounds so sick on carbs...

9:46 I thought they had no legs

Visioracer! your videos keep getting better and better! your english is better and editing also. keep up the good work. you are my favorite car youtuber on youtube

Great film!!Good call on the ford v4...sweet sounding old unit.....then the molar monsters...epic!

holy f**k your english improved a lot bro

My vote will always be for a bridgeport 12a running dcoe's

Great video

great selection you're presenting there. And thanks for including the glorious Ford Flathead. I've been a huge fan of the Flattie before, so this was a really special ending of the video for me :) Regards from petrolhead to petrolhead! Greetz from Germany

How about a big block chevy with a 4 barrel carb wide open throttle! That is the definition of sweet sounding engines!

Cant believe i made it through this list without seeing suzuki's SRAD engine

so cool video bro!! like! thxs ;)

Fantastic video visio! And your English is better than ever!

I will miss the sound of all motor, in the near future we will be driving eletric cars with tron sound

I really love your videos they’re great to watch . Not sure if someone already pointed this out but the first Lamborghini was the 350GT not the Muira that came later . I had an Alfasud gold cloverleaf, it had an uprated 105bhp boxer in it though , I so miss that car . Might get another 😁

Very cool videos.

The sound is amazing

What the ford 427 with the 8 webers like the ford gt40

10:02 I thought that sound was from the clapping girl

Not a fan of carburetors, but that bare engine almost at the end of the video with 2 valves per cylinder was so cool, thanks for uploading this.

That 240Z though. Sounds so good.

Miura was not the first Lambo car.

i cant believe they didnt add the rotary wankel engine...

I love your videos dude they are awesome. I was wondering if you can do: 10 worst produced GM engines?

Oh yeah our skoda is unbeatable! :D Also I see that you worked on your pronunciation so big greetings for that.

Actually the first Lamborghini was the 350 GT not the Miura, and the whole story of Ferruccio being insulted by Ferrari is a myth.

Not Skoda, but _Škoda._

I had tripple webber carburetors on my L24 datsun 240c 150 rwhp it sounded amazing

Nice list, specially the Miura

Carburetors make more power I worked with carburetors most of my career I still own 1 bike and one truck with carbs modern fuels and emissions killed the carb.But to be able to rebuild and tune a carb is an old art fuel injection is easy to work on but in the 80's was the best time to learn the new systems knowing both makes life easy much like ignition systems

where is Lada engine?🙄😂😂

Fucking love me some carbs. This gotta be my favorite video in a while. Keep it up man.

The SU carburetor is very unique. It has a needle & piston like a Mikuni that's vacuum operated behind a butterfly which opens from the throttle cable. What works really cool about this is when you open the butterfly the vacuum draws heavy on the jet before the piston opens, so you never get any lag, and it doesn't need an accelerator pump.

I love fuel injection, but i hate all the wiring that has do to with engines, i like how carbed cars have far less wiring.

Toyota 4A-G! not 4A-GE cause the E means = Multi-point fuel injection and your wrong again, most people use EFI with intake trumpets in 4age ST/BT for fuel Economy, Tuning and Performance

20 years in the future, (and maybe even now) these sounds will be much cherished.

Good video :) I like ur voice bro

first comment ;) nice work visio keep up the good vids

A carburetor is a much better method of fueling an engine. The atomization is much finer than fuel injection once the engine warms up. That's why there is zero improvement in gas mileage since fuel injection was invented. I've looked straight into many different carburetors and you cannot even see the fuel vapor, it's so finely atomized that there is no visible fuel leaving the Venturi throat of the carburetor. The only time you see liquid fuel is when the engine is cold, that's when carburetors are terrible since the fuel vapor turns into liquid droplets and runs as a liquid along the walls of the intake manifold, and it basically "washes" the lubricating oil off the cylinders causing increased cylinder wear. Fuel injected engines are better because they reduce cold start wear, by atomizing the fuel very good on a cold engine, that's why if you take apart a fuel injected engine there is still fresh crosshatch marks (honing marks from the original engine assembly) even after 170,000 miles. But in terms of peak efficiency, carburetors are perfectly good and can be made to vaporize the fuel so finely that you can literally double your gas mileage by simply heating the fuel in the carburetor to near boiling point to atomize it even further. Since most carburetors sit in the engine bay and don't have a circulating return based fuel system, the fuel is roasting hot. Thus carburetors actually deliver roasting hot fuel into the engine, which is very finely atomized. Roasting hot fuel burns much better than cool fuel. The future of fuel systems is a carburetor based fuel system, not fuel injection. The heated "vapor" carburetor patents have been withheld from the public because the patents were purchased by oil companies a long time ago. If you do some research you'll see that several people figured out how to get 50 mpg out of a large V8 engine in the 1970's, on a large 4000 pound car by using a heated carburetor. Having fuel injection is a very good way of controlling the variables, so there is no way to improve your gas mileage. On carburetor based engines you can easily modify them to run them on hydrogen, natural gas, acetylene, propane, or alcohol and you can adjust both the spark timing and fuel jetting with a soldering iron, a wrench and some drill bits. There's no need for any computers. Although it would be good to have a wideband air fuel mixture gauge. The only way I know of increasing gas mileage on an EFI engine is to switch to different fuel injectors with more holes, increase fuel pressure, remap the fuel mixture curve in the computer, increase the ignition timing by remapping the computer, change to a lower octane fuel (lower octane provides faster burning in most cases, at the risk of detonation). Or you can modify the engine engine by milling the cylinder head, removing the catalytic converter, or changing to higher compression pistons. They also sell thinner head gaskets which are called "MLS" multi-layered-steel that can raise compression. Note: The final way to increase fuel economy without any modifications to your engine is to put a Joe Cell on your engine. I improved my EFI engine gas mileage by 25% with no engine modifications and no computer modifications. Of course nobody believes it's possible so it stops many people from ever researching it. But as a mechanic, I can tell you that it does work. I have some Joe Cell videos on my channel.

Those were the days😭❤❤

awesome
