Thanks Hank, I appreciate it. The actual exhaust tone and rhythm sound different than what this video shows. Maybe because the exhaust was getting calmed down by the grass outside my garage. The cam isn't so wild that it lumps or lopes erratically, but it does have more of a chop to it, especially when I drop it into gear.

I'll try to talk small block chevy for a second...

I've owned plenty of sbc's so I understood every word of it and I like what's it's saying.
