@mschiffel1 It did sound nice with this cam. Made great top end power, too. The only down side to it was that it only got 12 MPG around town due to all the overlap. I dont have it anymore. One day, one of the lifters came apart. Driving down the road, and it went down a cylinder, and started making an obnoxious hammering noise, and that was that. Had to rebuild the engine. Has a small roller now. Makes almost as much power, and gets good economy, but the idle just sounds like a stock V8.
@mschiffel1 Since its a video showing the sound of the IDLE, I put the camera at the rear of the car where the exhaust exits. I thought it might be a little more interesting hearing it idle rather than just watching the engine. I dont have long tubes with dumps like a lot of people do, so the exhaust is quiet, and inaudable up by the engine.
It works pretty well. Makes power from ~2000 RPM - 5800 RPM with my trickflow 195s. If there is one thing I would have done differently, it would be use different lifters like the GMPP ones. The isky anti pump-ups that it came with are a bit noisy, and tend to clatter at certain speeds. With proper springs, valve float shouldn't be an issue, anyway. So, theyre not really needed in a mild street/strip application.
Sounds really good

How do you like your 270 mega cam? I am fitting one in my 350 also. Sounds nice.

What size engine are you running? You didn't wake anyone up did you?

Its a 350 SBC. Stock replacement from GM performance parts.
Cars not too loud w/ the full length exhaust, so the neighbors where probably OK :)
