Ok, to kind of add on to the op's post, does anybody have a non modified head from an ls1 preferrably a Camaro/TransAm that we can hear? I just got a VRX5 can and want too know how it sounds too, won't be getting it in till later and I still feel it will sound different than on a corvette with after market heads.

There are two on you tube (it's even posted above). One is on a vette (but it's racing another vette, we want to hear idle I think), and the other is in a garage (very bad acoustic atmosphere to hear idling). To the first person to post video/audio of the VRX5 cam ls1 stock head we'll give you an internet cookie, deal? .
