Both with the coolest sounds.

That's incredibly irrelevant to what I posted. I posted that it was a bit of a racist thing to use the term "Jap" to describe something that was perceived as "bad", and that an inline four cylinder engine doesn't sound like an eight cylinder engine with the pistons arrayed in a "V" configuration

Your comments have absolutely nothing to do with what I said. Thank you for trying to give history to engines, but you seem a lot confused
