Trying to make decision between the "driveability" and "reliability" of the 5.0 Cayote vs a 450-550 HP stroked SBF. My Cobra would be a street cruiser only, and while I love some rumble, I don't want to have to wear earplugs all the time

Heard a Cayote Cobra... at idle it was way too quiet and smooth, though it had a nice bark when you stuck your right foot into it. Any way to get some idle rumble into a Cayote while keeping driveability?
