Big cam sound...
Is it wrong to LOVE the ear candy this old but great video of an X1 cam puts out cold?
Who makes a comparable cam these days? Love how she warms up from near death early on!

Do a search on you tube for G5X3 and MS3 or MS4 cam. They sound similar. If you decide on an MS3 or 4 from Texas Speed I think 112 lobe separation will give you that type of sound.

Uhm, no, not even close. The Youtube description is very wrong.
The MTI X1 is a 230/227 cam if I recall.
The black car, is described by it's builder in this post:

You are more than welcome! Either of the cams I posted earlier are good for 50+ HP too. I forgot to tell you that.

I got the v3 on a 111 LSA. Music to my ears. Add the LG longtubes and B&B Bullets and it's magical. Mine doesn't sound like it is going to die when you start it though.

you can't really see the tips that good, but look closely and you'll notice the 2 tips in the center are a bit higher than 2 outer tips (because quad tips of SLP loudmouth are not exactly inline)
No exhaust comes close to how loud they are
, w/ a cam they are just insane
