Looking at your sig, do you have any sound clips? You have pretty much the same thing.
I dont have any videos so I am no help there. My setup is actually pretty civil, but I also have high flow cats. Its only real loud on wot pulls. Just driving around town its pretty tame. Now with an off road y pipe it would be MUCH louder and very obnoxious. I know this because my friend has that same setup.

Yea, I don't run a 346 anymore. When I did, it was a torquer v2(232,234). It drove good, except for the Detroit locker ratcheting with the clutch in while turning in a parking space. If I ever stick the motor back in, I'm going to use something close to an ms3.

That cam is proven multiple times on XE-R lobes and will NOT be 20hp/10tq shy of an EPS lobe.
