Re: thumper cam shaft??
You're not going to find too many cams that "sound good" and will work with a stock converter. The duration and overlap to get that rump, rump sound won't work very well with a stock converter.
I've got a big cam in my engine and it doesn't have the rump, rump sound.
Pick a cam to suit the driving style. If it's mainly street driven, you don't need an aggressive cam that starts to make power well above where the engine rpms will be operating.
