Re: V6 question
the 3.8 is a pushrod engine, the modern 4.0 ford is SOHC. I'm not familiar with a dodge 3.2, but the dodge 3.5 is DOHC. That will greatly affect the sound. There's also bore and stroke differences. I believe a car that gets its displacement from long stroke will sound deeper than an engine that gets it by large bore.
There's also the matter of valve timing and mufflers. Some exhausts are just tuned to sound differently.
