Interesting that the noise from the Mustang in those track scenes sound the same as the film yet the so called experts says the sound used for the Mustang in the film was from a GT40, so why would they bother dubbing a documentary

I heard a GT40 on a Clarkson video once, it sounded nothing like Bullitt

I know , I know , the mopar motors are way better than the equivalent Ford but there's just something about the sound of them when you get past about 5 grand that we just don't seem to get. Must have something to do with the firing order.
