I'd just turn up the stereo.

You'll have a hard time getting the cymbol crash out of your engine...and if you do, you probably won't like the results.

that was great man and buying a cam for sound is no better then ricers buying a fake BOV noise. yes a cam adds power but picking a cam on sound isnt the way to go.

Anyhow, those would be the big split, tight lsa cams.
Look at the LG G5X cams--->
Also, the TSP231/237
the GMPP ASA cam
the TR230 or TR236

Actually, going tighter than 110lsa as mentioned above would definately give you that sound.

Hot for teacher eh? You can always strap on a drum set to the hood of the car and do solos at the staging lanes to pass the time between runs.
