Like Rick said: "The solid lifter sound is what makes the LS6 Chevelle stand out. Quieting that cam ruins it for me. Like taking the whine out of an M22 or the sound of a Rolls Royce Merlin. Silence it and it’s just another engine."

My last NOS LS-7 crate engine ate a NOS solid LS-6 camshaft due to excessive valve spring pressure on the new GM Aluminum heads I used on it. I then installed a Comp Cams hydraulic roller, and it never was the same, performance nor sound. Bill
