Honestly I've heard H/C ls1's that don't even sound like they have a cam.. One that comes to mind is a torqr v2/patriot stage 2.5's combo. I think it made like 430 on the dyno but you could hardly hear any cam lope.

My H/C setup somewhat follows this. My vrx4 is one of the most mild sounding vrx4's you'd imagine.

I agree definitely a lot less than when I first got down here. Only seen two this year, a nice silver Z across from the stadium with the red and white tails and a berger. Ive talked to him a few times. The other one is a bright red Z that is just tasteless, if you see it youll know it.

Edit: one black T/A as well.
