Well, I guess its like the old saying "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", only in this case its in the ear. And I agree a sweet running cub engine is a joy to listen to. When I was a young man (about 50 years ago) my dad had an IH 50T baler with an engine that I think was a Cub engine and I enjoyed working with that baler because of the sound. (the work was pretty dirty though) When we would finish baling dads hay I would work for a farmer on top of the ridge who had about 3000 acres of alfalfa and a Freeman baler he pulled with a D6. The Freeman had a Wisconsin V4 for power and not much of a muffler. It was loud but it could really work and when it was working hard I'll never forget how it sounded and even today when I hear one of those V4's working hard and blowing snot and smoke it brings back lots of memories. I rode a small slip behind the baler and stacked bales and slid the piles off into windrows. Very dirty, hot, hard work even for a young man. So I enjoy listening to a Cub engine, or for that matter my H and Super C, but I like the Wisconsin V4 too.
