Pulling trucks = NICE 'idle'!!

Does anyone make a camshaft (I'm assuming that's what is making the really ROUGH idle on pulling trucks....) for the 6BT that is similar in grind to what the pulling guys use....?

I've heard a few I6 pulling engines run....not to mention the many V-XX Detroits.....and they sound NASTY!!

Is it cam or fueling or both.....I want the sound and power....I don't care about MPG...this is for a drag racing project.

After hearing those things run....I can't get enough of it!!
If I have to buy a Detroit V-XX, that's fine too....I gotta have the sound!!
