Too much extraneous noise for me. I'd really have to see a few things. 1. dyno sheet, dyno sheet, dyno sheet. 2. some sort of reasoning behind all that ticking. It sounded like an 1980's 4 banger low on oil or a Ford farm tractor. 3. dyno sheet. 
4. A successful tune installed. I wonder if that ticking sounds have the knock sensor going crazy. I wish I could see the dash in that video to see if the CEL is on.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking it (get it, knocking) These are just my first impressions. If that added some crazy HP without any damage to the motor and the sound itself was bearable, I'm in. I'd like to see another company come out with cams, just to compare numbers.
Seeing is believing.

I found that vid earlier today. I don't know what all that extra noise is either but I don't like it. I do like the rough idle though. I just wonder if this is the cam BBR is going to produce or just some experimental one.

That's what I'm talk'n bout.... Our valetrain's are noisey, maybe the cam's just amplify it? It almost sounds out of adjustment. I will be calling them Monday morning.

OH!!!!I didn't even think about my neighbors forever hating me each and every morning! It sounds nice. I am just curious about what's going on inside the motor to create some of those noises.

would love to have a set on ours. Reminds me of days gone by with the old solid lifter cams, they used to clatter just like that sometimes.

OHH myyyy! I could NOT stop smiling watching THIS thing. Now THAT sounds like a hotrod. Not many people will even try if you run around in that thing. Beautiful sounding. Yes, a little noise underhood, but if you've been next to serious hotrods before while idling, this is what they sound like.
I would just love to know some perf numbers. 1/4 times, and dyno sheets would be great. It sounds good for at least 400, but tough to go by sound alone. I also wonder if other things needed to be done like 42lb injectors or anything else.
Just awesome though, I like!
