Beau.. maybe I should drive up there with my 5.3? Btw, the little silver car in the garage has a heartbeat.

I was beside a guy yesterday on my way home from work on a zx14 street bike and I popped off at him...he pulls up next to me and says how you get that 3 fitty to sound that good? I started explaining to him that its not a 350 and he says well my 03 tahoe got a 3 fitty and I needs it to sound like that with out modifying the muffler....I just rolled up my window!

Was getting gas one day with the engine running when someone told me the truck sounds good and if I had a roller cam or hydraulic cam. I said roller and he "wow it sounded like it".
