Default weird cam request

Got a friend with a stock m6 trans am. He wants a midsized cam like 230 or something around there but wants it to sound like a ms3 or gx3 or something. Main conern is power under the curve and sound. He's funny. But what should I advice him to do

My old motor had Thunder's 230/224 "reverse split" cam in it. The sound was unmistakable. It also made good power (about 375rwhp I think) and ran great 1/4s (11.8s) in my 3500 stalled A4.

When that cam came out it went into a friend's m6 TA. He loves it and also made some very good power on nitrous with it.

It seems like this cam would fit well into your friend's requests. Hope this helps.

I think Predator-Z had an awesome idea. I'm not sure if it was ever ground and tried out though.

232/228, .595/.588 108 LSA -1 (108LSA/109 ICL)

"That should make killer midrange trq, peak about 6300 (depending on intake), and carry very well after peak. On top of that 14* overlap for ground shaking lope (and a nice indication of the power it can make)

Yet it remains kinda small, without using huge lifts (no wimps either but still more realistic to the average head parameters that we see)."
