Default badass cams...

what are the most badass sounding cams we can put in these 4.6 PI motors with stock heads...if im gonna cam my car i want it to have a nice lopey sound, or i think its not worth it..my exhaust is alrdy loud (bassani long ceramic headers, bassani x pipe with cats hollowed out, and slp catback), now i want the deep muscle car grumble..any suggestions?

id love to do some heads too but gotta draw the line somewhere. good head cam packages somewhere maybe? any deals around somewhere?

before its suggested, i know the new trick flows are the best but there is no way i have 2k to spend on heads, rather do a blower at that point...

how much you guys spend on install for your cams?

well performance certainly matters to me as well...i thought all cams basically see the same 40rwhp? i didnt think there were any that had exceptionally more gains than another?
