Default Spark on exhaust stroke. For fun

I have a 1998 f150 (4.7?) farm truck and was wondering if it might cause any damage if I swapped the ignition wires around to spark on the exhaust stroke. Just want to make a loud noise pretty much haha.

You might end up with the entire exhaust system on the ground but you probably WOULD achieve your goal of loud.

Well half of the exhaust already got ripped off after going over a frozen snow bank trying to plow the drive last winter. So then I guess worst case scenario I loose half of the exhaust system

Just one more thing, could someone confirm I'm reading this right. So to achieve spark on exhaust stroke I'd just put cylinder 5's ignition wire into cylinder 6?

Thanks
