Here are a before and after video of my 1970 GTO running a 461 with the off the shelf XR 288. It is the same cam you have except the LSA is 110.
Before:

Exhaust is Magna Flow with X-Pipe
After:

Exhaust is now Flow Master American Thunder Series with Texas TA mufflers and H-pipe.
Big difference in sound.

I remember that you mentioned that before. There's a big difference in sound for sure on the videos. When I bought my system, Pypes didn't have the H-pipe available. They don't even show it on their website right now, as far as I can find. I'll have to give them a call Monday.
