Default G5X4 / MS4 guys

What kind of power are you putting down with these cams and what other mods do you have.

00 Freak- does your SOM have the grill taken out? I see you driving across base sometimes. Beautiful! I heard those LG cams are sick. I was thinking X3 though with some LS6 heads. Your formula is sick too! I see you at the lemon lot sometimes. I'll try to stop next time and say hi.

Whats up man. Yeah the grill is off untill I get a billet grille. You drove by once at the lemon lot and wanted to say whats up, but I was in the middle of selling my sunfire. I just got my true duals installed on the formula. But something went wrong and gots to fix it. When you drove by that night the other guy and I were admiring the sound of your exhaust so I had to get mine.

I'm thinking of taking out my TR224 and installing one of these cams. I would like to see some G5x3 or x4.

I figured that might be the case. What exactly is the difference? I am going to try to get some videos this week to post. I love the MS4. The entire cam package...(cam, springs, retainers, pushrods, new LS6 oil pump and LS2 timing chain was only $1075) So why would you pay alot more than that for an LG setup if you did not have to? (please don't bash yet...I know the LG's have great gains and don't really know much else about their setup except they are expensive)

I was thinking the same, but I think if I was going to buy the LG cam I would just buy the cam and go w/ PRC valvetrain. It would be lil more but not $1300.

Sounds like a good plan. You won't regret it. I did the cam first to see how it was with a cam only. By spring of this year I am going to order a set of heads and get the Fast 90/90 setup so I can have over 500 at the tires. One thing at the time, oh one thing at the time. LOL.

Default X4

I am putting down 408/380 with 853 untouched heads and through a 12 bolt. I am hoping for 500WHP N/A with a set of heads but i believe that I am going to come up a little short.

I ran out of injectors on the pull of 408 when it was colder. 107% duty cycle but AFR was way to lean.

Very similar to my current 347 NA project but I've getting 57cc patriots, fast90/90, the ms4 is on a 109/107icl and it has an EWP....

Maybe it'll be worth 470 or so....

I made 412rwhp and 368tq through the 10bolt rear. Now I'll be installing my S60 in a couple of weeks so I'm sure that will definately chew some hp up, but that's why I'll be getting heads most likely yet. Mods in sig!

Is your intake ported? You only made 4 more HP than me and 11 less TQ but I am on a 12 bolt and you are on a 10 bolt.

Are these cams too wild for the street? Im thinkking of doing a cam swap at some point in life and always think to put the biggest that I can get away with and get good results just thought that these cams would be a little too big.
