What exhaust will make a 12 valve sound like a 24 valve? I love my 12 valve but kinda miss the sound of my 24 valve.

No exhaust will accomplish that. The sound of the 24V comes from valve chatter(double the valves) and the VP-44. Even though the VP is a much smaller pump than the p7100, it is twice as loud. Some people run 24v heads on 12v engines however most dont see much of a performance difference. Maybe someone else will chime in on some ideas.

I knew that most of the sound came from the pump. Didn't know about the valves makes since though. I was just wondering if any would give that rumble.

They have different compression ratios too

you could bump up the timing to make more valve clatter, my brothers is set at 18 and his sounds pretty close to a 24v IMO

Yeah i plan to bump to 16* soon just sitting at a stoplight tonight with the window down a 24 valve pulled up next to me. He tried to race me ha yeah right.

psh crazy 24valvers... thinkin they can stand up to a 12v.. i raced one a lil while back and left at in the dust... he was cool tho gotta give him that haha

come on, 24vs have some umph behind them its just really expensive to build them, so less people have them built compared to 12v guys, we cant go in with a screw driving and a hack saw and come out with more hp. well not until we put a p-pump on, coming soon.

o ya dont get me wrong i would take a 24 with a p-pump ANYDAY. thats my dream truck right there... P-Pumped 24v in a 3rd Gen Body... o ya thats the good stuff

ya i have one of every dodge there is 1992 1st genin sig,1995 second gen P-PUMP shop truck,2nd gen 24v in sig,3rd gen black mega in sig, but gettin the sound you only get out of a 24v is not going to happen no matter how much timing you add. i think my 24 would keep up pretty good

My '95 12v is a slouch compared to my '01 24v. I could put the 12v on a trailer behind my 24v and still outrun it. I would be happy if it just ran "as good" as my 24v. I need some pump work I guess.

You can thank the adrenaline for that

I certainly do...
