Funny you should say that BC....here is a comment that was posted about that clip in response to my comment.

MY Comment in response to people who said it sounded like crap:

Some of you are truly retarded [ +1 good ]
That Vette sounds awesome. It’s called a camshaft, with a lot of lift and duration. The fact that it idles at all below 1200rpms proves it is tuned very well. If you don't have any LS1/LS2/LS7 engine knowledge please don't post about how it should or should not sound or run.
Also, remember to turn off the neon lights under your Honda or the battery will die.

"I guess you are not farmiliar with an alcohol engine with a blower attached... that is not camshaft sound that is a blower. You couldnt possibly hope to get that sound with a camshaft lol."
