[Healeys] The Healey sound track

[Leonard Hartnett]

When I acquired my car, a PO had removed the resonators.  It sounded GREAT - 
until you went downhill in third or second gear.  Then it was a constant 
backfire.  Too annoying, especially for wife.  I put the resonators on and 
backfiring went away.  Still sounds pretty good, though.
