Resonance was really bad at first, but I guess I got used to it. It doesn't bother me that much anymore. Just crank up the tunes.

If you talking about my Utube clip it's the light. I wanted to show what the exhaust looked like so I put a light on the floor. It must have messed with the camera. They are stock red. It really didn't do any good either.

Not the greatest clip, but enough to give you an idea.

Camcorders don't do a very good job picking up really low frequency sound (bass) so it sounds a bit distorted. It's also hard to capture what something really loud sounds like from up close. Again, too loud and it becomes distorted. I'll probably have better luck having someone follow me around in another car, filming mine as I drive it around town. That should give a much better idea of what it really sounds like out on the road.

For what it's worth...

Agreed
I love how it's so loud that when you let off the gas, the audio drops because the mic is trying to auto adjust to the drastic drop in noise level haha

Nope, no cam. The motor's still 100% factory issue.

I'm in the middle of building a 396 LT4 - been at it for a while now actually (Just gotta finish paying off a few more bills before I can focus on the build again)

- so for now, the only mods I'm doing to the stock motor, are mods that can/will be transferred to the new one when it's complete. (aka. hedders, exhaust, electric pump, roller rockers etc.)

Thanks man. The car's running 17x11 ZR1 style wheels with the GS offset. Last summer I through on some GoodYear GSD3's (or whatever they're called). Size is 315. They're quite a bit wider than the old 315's I ran, and as a result stick out just a tad further than before. Maybe about 1/4" past the fender.

For a few pic's of the car...
