It is the difference in degrees of crankshaft rotation between impulses that you are hearing. The more impulses you can pack into one revolution, the smoother the sound. A 360 degree twin makes a nice pop pop sound, and a four makes kind of a puttputtputt sound because they are coming faster. A straight six makes a hearty whine, and the eights are getting into a nice smooth moan. Some of the new 10 cylinder pickups with custom exhaust sound like an old Kawasaki four to me. The best Farmall sound I remember was the 806LP on the silage blower.
