The BRM V-16 gets my vote. That screaming banshee howl when it winds out is phenomenal.
BRM H16 is my favroite
Damm, when they revved that 2 stroke 16 cylinder Detroit diesel (Screaming Jimmy), it brought back many memories.
Wow I'd never heard of the BRM 1.5 V16 that is just amazing that they we're using such a small displacement back in the 50's and getting 600bhp. Way ahead of there time.
It was super-charged, that's why it had 600Bhp
It was twin supercharged, and the fact it ran on 80% methanol, 10% acetone, 10% race fuel.
I know this is about V-16 engines but think about the 161 cubic inch 4 cyl. Offenhauser engine putting out 920 h/p.
Auto-Union Type C: a work of art; clean design; epic sound; way ahead of its time
This is the best sounding engine design. It puts V12's to shame and sounds a lot like a V8, only more raw and serious.
I'm pretty sure that the BRM at the 4:45 point is technically horizontally opposed, but since it does not have a "boxer" crankshaft, it qualifies as a 180 degree V16.
Cool video!
it is a H16 which has 2 cranks if i am correct
That first BRM sounded awesome. A V16 of only 1.5 litres, unbelievable.
I don't really care whether it's flat, H , or V.
Still sounds great @Phillip Aubin
Thank you for showing me everything I like but can't afford
Indeed
Hang on were gonna go fast I love this guy's sense of humor
The V16 really scream when they're revved. Great stuff.
No vibration, so they rev to the moon.
Even the Diesel, surprisingly.

Thank you this video. The video
is give more learn, more knowledge
to hear my ears, a 8 greatest Sounding 16 - cylinder Engines.
And I thank you.
God damn that detroit diesel was heaven on my ears
OMG: 64 valves to grind when doing a head overhaul!
Sounds like a V8 at 18,000rpm! Wow! Very cool!
The 1966/7 BRM is an H16 being, essentially, two flat-8s driving two separate crankshafts connected through a step-down gear chain. Horrendously unreliable, when it worked it was awesome.
Only other time I've seen that was World War II when they tried to mount to Flat 12-cylinder aircraft engines on top of each other that didn't work either
@@jimshoemaker1258 If you mean the Napier Sabre, it did work and very well once they manufactured the sleeve valves correctly with help from Bristol who had been manufacturing sleeve valve engines since the early 1930's. The Sabre VII was good for 3,500hp.
Detroit 12v71 diesel is a 2 stroke, the sound would be the equivalent of a 24 cylinder 4 stroke motor, they do sound sweet when your standing next to the truck thou
Its actually a 16V!!
Check each head (4 off) for the amount of rocker sets and the exhaust manifold Outlets (4 X 4 = 16).
How do you make that claim?
Damn that Cizeta at full chat..... 😍
3:37 How wonderful to see the oldest track in the World, Shelsley Walsh, host the Auto Union. Lovely to see this video but even better to be there, as I was.
I love an EMD 567c
The Detroit sounds and looks like a mechanical monster, love the sound it makes
WatchMeStress + me too :)
Really was two V8 bolted together
I always wanted to see a v16 or w 16 corvette!
The Detroit diesel sounds amazing
Totally cool WOW beautiful cars too...I love 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝it..thank, you for everything that you do
Brenda Proffitt + Thanks ! :)
este motor parece um tigre nervoso muito top parabéns
The original Chrysler Hemi engine was a V16 , (Chrysler XIV-2220) intended for aircraft use. I wonder what it sounded like. I doubt one will ever be run again.
I doubt you will English too
@@PizzaPowerXYZ WTF Do you mean by that ? Makes No Sense.
@@badass6.0powerstroke10 the commenter didnt know how to spell English very well (not grammar wise)
@@PizzaPowerXYZ That's what i thought.

You should hear my prius revving up. Insane.
I love the idea of the Devel Sixteen, the engine is almost exactly the same specs as one I came up with in a novel I wrote a few years ago, so I would love to see it actually hit the street, but that body is a joke. Put it in something a bit more understated, like the McLaren F1 or the Ford GT and then you might have a car that a grown-up would want to be seen in. At the moment, it is a car for billionaire teenagers, and there aren't a lot of them around......
I like the Oder engines, back when all of the designs and engineering were all truly pioneers.
I didn't think there was a bad sounding 16 cyl engine until I heard that Maserati at the end coughing & spluttering & smoking out both ends, that's concourse material!
I bet you will cough splutter and fart a bit aged 88 years
The Bugatti W16 is a monster!! It could make a dragster pause for thought!!
In what world, dragsters are pulling 3 and 4 seconds passes in the quarter and no Bugatti vehicle has gone faster than 9.4. Your average 2.0 litre cylinder you see at a racing event is faster. Weight is Bugatti's biggest problem. Do yourself a favour, stop living in lies and educate yourself🤡
Devel Sixteen is a 4 cylinder engine with 16 valves from Toyota Camry!
Your dumb.
@@dro3m je is right
camry got v6 u idiot
It’s a 7 cylinder you guys, calm down
@@willpitts9957 🤣
Damn those sound good. I’m currently modding a camaro 1le. Let’s keep in touch.
Did you see how fast the devil sixteen had gone in this video? Thats the fastest this car ever went.
0:04 -- Drivers face: "Not bad!!"
thanks for the eargasm
I love the smell of high octane in the morning!
Absolutely
A car owned 16 cylinders that is Fking amazing!
Definitely the BRM!
The only engine here with true head turning sound of pure power is and will always be the old school 2 stroke Detroit. When you hear one of these start up it's like seeing a real life Godzilla. They have a very distinct sound and the way the rpm's roll on a cold start is like Mozart. Perfection.
GM Detroit 2 stroke is a copy of GM EMD 2 stroke which are also named on the cu in of one cylinder.
EMD 567, 645 & 710.
EMDs are 45deg Vee and they exhaust in the Vee rather than the much smaller Detroits more conventional arrangement.
Like Detroits, EMDs also have Roots blowers but they are camshaft driven and are at the end of the rocker box as they can't fit in the Vee because of the exhaust and mufflers.
Many models are hybrid turbocharged ie the turbo is crank driven for starting and idling then exhaust spools the turbo up via an overrun clutch and it operates as a conventional turbo. The turbo-blower (or blower-turbo lol) is a single very large unit and doesn't look like a conventional turbo.
This vid is of a 16V567 (non turbo). There is a fine study of the blower on the end of one of the rocker box:
czcams.com/video/zcYFf_H-xyY/video.html
xellossaxon that's a bit uncalled for isn't it?
Just because he likes something doesn't mean he's ignorant of more modern technology.
Incidentally there's a company that modernizes DD 2 strokes.
Also thousands of EMD 2 strokes (also a GM product like Detroit Diesel) are running and reliably generating power as i write this and shall be for at least the next 15years (in likelihood).
Like the Detroit Diesels the EMDs have been moderized over the years but unlike Detroits, EMDs have persisted to the present.
Mostly (but not exclusively) the 2 stroke Detroits went out of fashion for 1 reason. The reason was in automotive use ie. trucks, they cost ~ $50 more than 6 cylinder turbo diesel 4 strokes per day to run. They were extremely reliable and this reliability offset to sime extent the high fuel costs of running them. As time changed 4 stroke 6 cylinder won out for automotive use as power production began to climb because at 600hp 4 stroke for example off boost has lower pumping losses due to fewer moving parts and an 'idling' turbocharger and on boost exceeded the 2 strokes power production.
Detroits used so much fuel because the Roots blower consumed ~100hp to turn wheras a turbo spools up and down and has more demand based high fuel consumption.
In stationary applications EMD 2 strokes find themselves in great demand in part since they're equipped with a hybrid turbo/blower arrangement. Of course there are many other reasons beyond my knowledge for their use but the routinely produce ~3500hp @ 950 rpm for the V16. V6, V8, V12, V16 AND V20 are the most common.
The blower is crank driven for starting, idling and low power but as they are notched up the compressor is exhaust driven via an overrun clutch. This was actually proposed by Detroit Diesel engineers but was too costly to implement at the time considering the Series 60 was on the horizon.
The last gasp of the 2 Stroke was the very excellent Detroit Diesel Silver Series with DDEC 1, a turbo feeding into an aftercooled bypass blower that saved 30hp when the turbo came on boost. The Silver was the engine the EMD style hybrid turbo/blower was proposed for.
ThePaulv12 thanks and well written i have been a professional diesel marine mechanic for over 20 years and before that an automotive one so i get it and live it. There are plenty of old school alpine green dd 2 strokes in the marine industry and will be for a long time to come. What that other guy don't get is that engine is the engine that built America. I had twin 8v53 naturals in my 1968 Chris Craft that sank twice before I got it and the original engines still start on the first piston. Truly the best sounding engine, in my opinion, ever made as well as an awesome engine to see running especially when you are standing in between 2 v12 big bore dd 2 strokes in an engine room and i have been between 12cyl cats with over 1500 hp. each.
Thanks Jack :) I'm a qualified mechanic also. Automotive general stream rather than heavy. Did my apprenticeship at a Merc Benz dealer - do you read that *xellossaxon*? Worked 30 years in the industry as a mechanic and these days I drive big rigs for a living since I'm sick and tired working on cars and want a break from the pressure.
Now I have to deal with idiot game playing motorists so the pressure is about the same lol.
The truck I drive is a 2002 Kenworth with a 600hp Cummins Signature Series and an 18sp Eaton. It is very ballsy especially noticeable when heavily loaded. That truck is one of our company's older units and doesn't get much attention since it was bought for a contract to supply 3 trucks and 3 drivers to deliver steel and is driven 5 days per week day and night. I drive my druck during the day, and the night driver takes it when I get back. The thing does about 600miles or 1000kms a day and some days much more.
Normally maintenance is done on weekends but if it spills over into the working week then the company is contracturally bound to supply another truck, same goes for sick drivers.
ThePaulv12 i did read xellossaxon. I didn't get why he felt the need to correct me on what i like but i guess it makes him feel better. Like it will change the way i feel about the old school Detroits sound. Kinda like the sound of a Harley Davidson over a rice rocket.
It sounds like you got some good power under your feet. I couldn't drive for a living. I definitely don't have the patience for idiot drivers. I like fixing boats, you never know what you'll be doing next and when you step on a multi million dollar yacht it can be rewarding. Like everything the down side is working on them in winter. When you are in an engine room with 12 cylinder engines on each side with big gears and it is 10 degrees, yeah it definitely has its down side lol....
Is there any video anywhere of the Coventry Climax 1.5 liter flat-16 FWMW, intended for F1 in 1965? I don't know how it sounded (I can guess), but it's my candidate for the prettiest engine ever made. It was the cover feature of a Road&Track Magazine of that year.
Brm 1.5.. Sounds deadly
The Chiron has a W16 not a V16, the Devel didnt have the engine in it yet when that footage was shot of it it rolled using a V8.
Very interesting
the duallys on that auto union are so incredibly sick
Use dual rear wheels for hill climbs events also on the hill climb events they didn't use a radiator they had a total loss system evaporating alcohol check it out coolest s***
Loved the auto union 1930's circa
Это шидевры с картинами и с скульптурами могу сравнить
EMD 645, best sounding 16 cylinder.
Noah S. I like EMD 567s. They have a distinctive whine the 645s don't.
Also, in case you're interested, many 567s were extremely noisy - more so than the 645 series.
The lower power 567V16 (1500-2000hp) were so noisey some of the ones I heard, even up to 25 years ago, were approaching the sound level of a nitro methane top fuel dragster - esp in notch 8 at less than 20mph.
BEST
The Detroit engine I know inside and out have worked and rebuilt dozens of them.
V-16's are exotic and all but when you start getting into engines of that length crank whip becomes a real problem.
I can't imagine there is a 16 cyl. engine that doesn't sound great !
2 V8 engines smashed end to end? Crazy.
The 1930-38 Cadillac V16s are the best V16 powered cars. Period.
I never knew there where 16 cylinder engines before this vid
@@phantomcorsair8476 Yeah that makes sense. I wouldnt think a v12 would have enough power for a mining truck
@@phantomcorsair8476 Yeah ik abt smaller trucks,military vehicules and some cars having them. But like the huge mining trucks seem like they need more power. But I never knew they had v engines with more cylinders. Yes very intersting thing I have learned today thanks.
@@phantomcorsair8476 Thanks buddy
i wonder wether the soundtrack used for the devel was actually from a mixture of noisy celing fans, a inline 5 & a compressor.
Almost 100k subs
Olav Lea + Yes ! thank you and Merry Christmas :)
The CAT V20 1 megawatt diesel sounds awsome also.
KTA50. Most successful V16 ever built
For fucks sake this world needs more V16s!!!!!
It took every bit of 16 cylinders to move that green Maserati 1 mph. Too funny. Especially when all those guys popped a boner when it started.
this world needs cheap petrol
RogueSp33d _ I agree lol
16 cylinder motors are very fuel inefficient. So much piston crown and combustion chamber area for the displacement as compared with fewer cylinders adding up to the same displacement.
@@algrayson8965 Prius owner detected
........truckers don't get the respect they deserve on the road !
Bet that engine is better then the bugatti itself
The devel reminds me of the Ferrari f80 concept
Devel 16 couldn’t do shit break every time it goes out
Ls engines don't break
I would like to see that Level sixteen actually hit its top speed, I think it's just a engineering mathematical "theory" performance. Actually driving it to 347 mph and being stable and controllable is completely different.
So far they made an engine that produces 3000hp not 5000hp. Right now they have a v8 in the concept car
I saw the graphic with the description for the Devel Sixteen engine and I was thinking to myself, "There's no way a car can make that kind of power and still be street legal."
it is street legal alright. It is essentially 2 built twin turbo LS's mounted inline. Roughly 1800hp per engine on pump gas, or 2500hp with racing fuel.
I’ll take the Auto Union. Sounds wicket ... amazing 1930s tech
Claus Madsen I couldn't agree more with you sir. The auto union had a wonderful sound.
Every mechanical principal was worked out by 1930.
Maybe 2 people in the world could drive the thing.
It's a copy made in England running full electronic ignition and it puts out over 650 bhp!
Claus Madsen that auto union isn't 5% the car the BRM is IMO
the chiron has a w16 not a v16 btw
4:46 that is a 3 liter H16, not a V16
I think that I've seen 1 or 2 huge V24 diesel generators.
Devil 16 🔥
The Devel needs the Batman theme song played when it drives by
You vorgott Big bud v16 747
Everybody is is gangsta until the devel arrivee
Good video but obviously a H16 engine isnt a V16 engine
the devel 16 is actually a crate motor GM small block v8!
The Devil,paint it black,you have the new Batmobile !!!!!!😎
BRM was so far ahead of the available technology of the day.
there s different types of v 16 here . there cross crankshaft and there some inline crankshafts , and try looks this subject is hard to find
That last one I could beat racing to the bathroom
I don't know why I'm here.
Let's go back to chill out music
czcams.com/video/32HT9LRq6D0/video.html
nuff said.
What on earth is the guy on the left doing with his hands at time index 5:13?!
Forgot the EMD 16v645.
Bugatti is a W16.
The BRM was not a V engine. It was two flat eights merged together, Nothing has been made like it since
Oh me gad. I GOTTA HAVE that Devel Sixteen!
'Olly shet!
Where was the EMD 16-645E3? You got close with the Detroit ... but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
lol that 2nd car is a kit car with a 305 in it that makes 250 HP
I've never seen a Devel sixteen before.... Holy F C
the brm h16 inst a v16, its 2 flat 8s stacked and geared together
The video is for 16 cylinder engines, regardless of layout.
For the 1st one, how did they manage a 1.5 liter V16 engine? That’s crazy
49.53 mm bore, just imagine that in your palm... and those things withstood 5 bars (72 psi) of boost from the superchargers... engine produced 600 HP @12,000 RPM, but Rolls Royce estimated it would've been capable of 14,000 RPM with a more advanced ignition system... all this in the 1950's.... yeah, it is crazy
Amazing stuff. Where did we go wrong?
It also ran 80% methanol, 10% acetone, 10% race fuel.
You guys realize that the Chiron has a W16 not a v16 right?
Something about the devel sixteen seems odd
Marco53 like scam odd? Or look odd?
could be both
Its ugly thats for sure
Marco53 For all the hype of the Devel Sixteen I cant find one video of the car going over 20 mph. What gives? Sounds like a farce to me.
if you look up videos it shows evidence for it being a false car, when you buy it its a shell and you choose which engine you want to put in, none of the engine options reach over like 500 horsepower or something like that
牛逼 16缸
Auto union Type C designers be like: "V16 is nice but I am not so sure its enough...." (while holding a roots supercharger) :D :D :D
You didn't do justice to the BRM V16. It has an incredible sound. Nick Mason himself said it doesn't sound much good below 9,000 but above that, it's expensive. Listen to this... czcams.com/video/RBKUQPjQ16I/video.html The uploader got the picture wrong on the video, it's of the BRM H16 [sic].
You forgot about the emd 645
Given that F1 aspires to be the absolute pinnacle of everything automobile (or at least used to), as regards engine noise, I am reminded of Kris Kristoffersons' inimitable words:
"I'd give all my tomorrow for a single yesterday..."
Which begs the question; Wither F1? (actually meaning RIP F1, of course) Well, the answer is simple: scrounge petrodollars and screw petrolheads...
You forgot to put w16, because it really is a w16
you missed the Porsche Flat-16
Dubai Beach:-))
My money's on the Detroit!
