Yeah they dubbed the V8 on after and used a smoke canister for the burnout sequence, additionally the Black Charger in the Bullitt chase was fitted with Vauxhall Viva engine, 1256 cc, it was all just sped up.

They were mostly straight sixes dressed up; there was one 'hero car' though. The engine sound was dubbed from a GT40; with Steve McQueen driving I believe.
