Brand new LS9 is $150 or less. It's a no brainer really.

Just richen the idle A/f up some... it will make any mild cam seem bigger...lol.

On a side note... you should be building it for performance and efficiency... not how choppy it sounds.

reminds me of one time at the track getting my Nova off the trailer.... fired it up and it sounded like a stock motor home or school bus...lol. A couple guys with a "race car" started laughing and made a few rude comments how weak it sounded. ...after making a pass the dudes came up with a pretty confused look on their faces.

as I was running quite a bit better than their loud and wicked sounding race car.
