You'd need a minimum of a bigger cam, headers, and catback exhaust to get that.

Re: How to give my car that sound?

jegs or summit

cam selection is alot of what you want in the car how good you are (or your prom builder is)

if you are just wanting the thump there is a cam model called Thumper

i would say a 278 or so duration may do it, he may also have solid lifters its hard to tell on the video sound quality, solid lifters give you that nice "tickin" (lack of better words) with the cam tump

also with a 278 cam you will need a 2400 stall converter if you got a automatic

possibilitys are end less, the bigger cam you get less vaccum you have at idle what can be hell on power brakes and vaccum operated items on the car

unless you really know what you are doing with a motor and what the numbers are on the cam mean you should probably stay away from a cam swap
