- Sounds best with earphones. 2002 F150 4.2 with a Flowmaster Super 10 dual outlet muffler dumped after it. 2 high flow cats replace the 4 stock cats. Stock engine, headers, and exhaust pipes.

As a man who owns this exact truck i can agree that its the best v6 in terms of sound
Crocs added 50 hp😉
Horseshit. I'm callin 100hp via Crocs
Also probably one of the nicest looking 👀 single cab short bed models imo
Yup. Have to agree with that title. Both GM's old 4.3 and Fords more powerful 4.2L are undisputedly *GREAT* motors. Both *proven* to go 225k mi. & beyond even when run hard. However the Ford has the most amazing sound to it when up over 3K, and gets 3'ish MPG better economy. Ford NAILED it when they created the 4.2L. Only time will tell if the new crop of FOMOCO V6's will make it past 225k with great regularity.
+COYOTE ADVENTURES I’ve had both and I liked them both. But I especially seem to like the Ford more. The 4.2 sounds really good for a V6.
291,231 on mine and I due regular maintenance and I beat on the thing a lot. No smoking nor anything. Just sings to the Moon and holds. 4.2 v6 with an M5OD-R2 was a good but not great replacement for the 300 I6 ford.
4.3 has more power
@@5.3rafa 4.2 makes 205/260 vortec 4.3 makes 200/250, 4.2 is more powerfull
Just have over 240,000 on my 4.2 and i havent had any problems so far, love it.
I'll agree with you on that. I have a 97 F150XL, 4.2, auto, regular cab short box. Just put my Texas Classic Truck plates on,. Looking at exhaust options, although I do live in a "emissions" county.
i recently got my first truck and it is exactly what you have :)
Awesome!
@@CarGuyV8 very awesome indeed
i love my 02 aswell but its a nice green XLT crew cap with a v8 4.6 in it it sounds great too
Same 256 V6, but with a stockish exhaust, automatic. 1st gear has this strange whine. But I don't mind it. It's a fun drive still.
did your transmission blow?
If it’s an automatic the whine is normal, they came with it from the factory.
i really hear the 6v53 detroit in this thing for some reason
Hearing it in person it really does sound like a diesel at certain rpms. Actually the old 4.2 truck I used to have sounded similar to a diesel at low rpms too.
sounds awesome i wish mine was a 5 speed id do this but it being an automatic it wouldn't get its bark til 4th gear.. before that it'd sound trashy. yours is awesome
Thanks man!
I have the same truck but long bed and auto. God i wish it was stick. I love the 4.2 tho
Sounds just like mine when i didn’t have a muffler on, I miss it!!
Beautiful lil truck 🛻
Sounds just like a big rig!
Im at 323,000 miles on mine. Wrecked it the other day, and found one for sale just like it on my way to work the next day. What are the odd's?
Chevys 4.3 has this beat
Bullshit 🤡Chevy sucks ass...
Hooo men mine is 98 f150 v6 4.2 5 speeds manual transmission l love this truck
(also has the Eddie bauwer package ) that’s a plus
@@bucsam1660 no it doesn't you loser soicuk
My first truck was a 99 f150 with the v6 and a 5 speed but mine was open header and was pushing 350k miles i only drove it for two weeks before it finally died now my buddy owns it and its getting a 5.0 coyote dropped into it
Nice! I bet that’ll be mean.
CarGuyV8 if its anything like my brothers 355 chevy s10 then yeah itll be a handmade widow maker
Sounds like it will be. I thought about swapping a 5.0 in this truck back when I owned it.
CarGuyV8 i thought about doing that but my buddy needed a truck so i traded him the truck for a six pack and a job application
Oh lol it’s good to have friends like that.
Sounds just like mine did with just having the muffler cut off before l had the exhaust replaced.
When dumping exhaust out of a flowmaster always add atleast 2 foot of pipe behind the muffler or else is just sounds like a gargling droning mess. I've had more exhaust setups on more vehicles than most. Trust me it would have a much nicer tone and would still be plenty loud. And if you have a cat switch to a high flow or none at all to really open the sound up.
Thats stock? Sounds good
You want to make it sound real good pull a vacuum line it'll sound like it's got a cam in it
4.3 sounds a lil better but I wouldn't trade a 4.2 for 10 4.3s
Looks like mine
At idle sounds like gargling water
I got the same truck 😂
When u turn off ur truck is there a hissing nose mien dose run grate but when I tune it off these a hissing even if I don't have a.c. on
All of them are like this even mine, it's just because the hvac system is ran from vacuum.
I got the best sounding 2001 f150 4.2
Would this be a good first vehicle?
Yes
@1:54 what us that little compartment on the left? Mine doesnt have that.
It’s been a long time since I’ve owned this truck. I think it was just extra storage
Looks like ashtray.
It has the lighter and car charger plug behind it.
I put a Electronic cut out and sounds the same wish I had the extra cash for all that
Sounds kinda like a raptor
CarGuyV8 dose you F-150 pass smog or state don’t do have too test?
My county doesn’t have smog
Could you link the 2 cats you got? Mines got a hole in it anyway and I’m not sure if I’m gonna patch it or trash it
Man it’s been over two years. A shop put them on and I don’t recall any brands.
Do u have a link to where u bought the cats from? Or what they’re called? Or the part number? Pls and thanks
I believe they’re just called magna cats.
CarGuyV8 thanks bro
what kind of cats? how much were they?
Magnacats. I’m not sure the price, but the total for the cats plus taking off the old ones and putting the new cats on was $550 total.
Man this thing would be so loud inside the cab your brains would rattle.... Video dont do justice to in cab noise!
It did have a ton of interior resonance! I’m a fan of interior resonance though, so it didn’t bother me lol
Shit basically mine won’t sound good till I replace the cats any y’all have any thoughts on these with no cats or muffler how they sound ?
Cut the cats out and put a Flowmaster super 44 on it. I did mine and sounds great.
Aoh sige disponible
It's insane to think the 4.2 nearly made the same power as the 4.6
Well the 3.8 was basically just a 5.0 Windsor minus two cylinders. The 4.2 is a stroked 3.8 so I’m surprised they only pulled 202 hp out of it!
@@CarGuyV8 It's based off the 302???
I thought it was a completely new engine built to be a V6.
@@nickd.7267 well I say it’s based off a 302 loosely. The bore and stroke is different but its still a pushrod center cam engine and if you take away 2 cylinders in a 302 you get pretty much exactly 3.8. That’s what I meant.
@@CarGuyV8 Internally its more like the Buick 3800 than a Ford 302, and supposedly it was designed pretty much from scratch with a "competitive 3.8L V6" as its performance/feature target.
Another fun fact is that the original test engines were all aluminum instead of being iron block with aluminum heads, and the dimensions from those engines were not changed much when moving to iron. Because of this the iron block was much more durable than a more thoroughly optimized iron block would be. In short, the 3.8/4.2 block is better than most any OEM 302 block made after the early 70s for making big power... even though only a handful of 3.8/4.2s ever get built into performance engines.
Does it still pass inspection?
It did, but our county doesn’t do emissions
CarGuyV8 hmm would texas pass? Harris County
I’m from Texas, just from a county without emissions. It’s got 2 cats and a muffler so it definitely should pass emissions.
Texas has a law on the books that states what came on the vehicle from the factory has to be on the vehicle. That being said it should not have passed inspection. However I personally think that law is crap and you should be able to do whatever you want to your exhaust. It is after all your vehicle not the States. Just an fyi on that law if you get caught with it altered it's one heck of a fine. Always do your research on state and local restrictions when modifying your vehicle. It will save you lots of money and possible jail time in the end.
2025 vehicles will not have to be inspected in Texas!,🤗
I have a shitty 92 Chevy I’m gonna swap a Nissan vq in it with turbos maybe
Please. Bone stock Alfa Romeo V6 sounds better than this and not by a little.
The title of this video is a lie!
I agree with you since there isn’t a v6 in existence that actually sounds good, however among all of the terrible sounding v6s, this one is the best sounding.

@@CarGuyV8 it’s a super6 4.2
@@CarGuyV8 Toyota v6s sound good
@@spartanboss4189 no
Yep I’m that guy get over it, sounds like poop. The only redeeming factor is that it’s 5 on the floor. Just get a 4.6, v6s are way too raspy and sound like trash.
