G5X3 114 LSA clearance question
Got the following cam going in my car and was wondering if it will clear stock 243 heads? I know they are 62cc which is a little less then my stock heads so i just wanna make sure. Also what head gaskets do you recommend with the ls6 heads and this cam?

From the Got cam/heads/rocker/machining questions about LS1, LS2, LS6? READ ME FIRST! sticky at the top of this forum....
Head cc volume = what compression ratio?
72.27cc = 9.1 CR

71.05cc = 9.3 CR
70.59cc = 9.4 CR
70.03cc = 9.5 CR
69.74cc = 9.6 CR
68.91cc = 9.7 CR
68.35cc = 9.8 CR
67.79cc = 9.9 CR
67.23cc = 10.0 CR
66.67cc = 10.1 CR (stock LS1 head spec)

Cant degree the G5x3, they wont give you the specs to degree it with.
Have the g5x3 in my car, pulls pretty hard starting around 3400 or so. Good that you have 4.10's already, that made a big difference in my car with the cam over 3.42's.

Trickflow 220 heads, milled to 59cc, Fast intake ported and opened up to 96mm, NW96mm throttle body, 85mm MAF, 1 7/8 ARH headers, ory, B&B catback
459/410 on the dyno, track ran a 11.8@123 stock rear with 4.10's. The clutch was probably slipping some on both the dyno and track, only had 1500 miles on it and was down to the rivets.
Cant say I agree with degree a cam off whats posted on the internet, I have seen 3-4 different specs for the cam posted on here.

since i have the 114 lsa, does it have an advance built in it usually?
Also, since i'll most likely be getting some ls6 heads (which shows 64cc), Im thinking about milling them down to 62cc. Would that be too much with the cam? Just want to bump up the compression some
