Ummm...those lopy cams you hear are the sweetest sound you will ever hear.. and they idle fine it tuned properly. I have a large cam in mine and it sounds simply sweet with no problems idling at all. Nothing like 3" exhaust with a lopey cam...
And yes muscle cars ran 13s and 12s.. add slicks to that and what do you get? I ran slicks once and like I said, almost mad a second difference. Without slicks I burn the tires down the track.. Hard to plant a pair of 245/50/15s with a 2.97 first gear 6 speed and 373 rear gears..
