Okay, I was dinking around yesterday, and I finally figured out how to post a video. 
More than anything, I finally sat down long enough to persevere long enough to be able to post up a video using photobucket. I'm so-o proud of myself! 
Here's a video of my car a little over a year ago idling in the driveway. Next up is a video of a burnout ... give me a few days, though ... I'm working on it, I'm working on it! http://s482.photobucket.com/albums/r...haustSound.flv

Congratulations on the video. Your idle is too smooth - you need a cam. |

Ah, the grunt of an American V8. Sounds great.

I'm surprized you can even hear your differential whine with that beast. |

I love the idle sound ... just bold enough. Inside, at cruise, it's not bad at all. Having a bit more lope would be nice, however.
GMBOUND and Den_93 have B&Bs, and they make my car sound like Prius at a stop light.

I remember back when i made my first post...it was a righteous feeling. Welcome to the club man, forum life is sweet. Lets see some pics!
That car sounds like a beast. If I didnt have to drive my car 600 miles a week id consider it...magnaflow for me eventually.
Looking forward to that burnout video!!!

Judging by all that casino cash, I'd take it he's been around a good while as well
