my first impression is that the torque is a little lacking behind the power, anyone else? or am I nuts? I really want the cam, someone just reassure me that the torque is inline.

the torque is fine. look how its above the baseline the whole way across even holds on longer. thats what it should do. that cam has very good range and will perform very good throughout.
however id like to know why the sample wasnt started at say 2500. the cars a manual so its easily done. just curious to know that? im betting its a little lower if no higher than stock, which is perfectly fine. that car bone stock has enough to fry the tires. so just make it hold on longer for best results. thats how i feel anyway.

I am hoping your Vette sounds better than that...
I am guessing by the sound, the guy had the mic gain cranked wide open on his camera, or he had tin cans for mufflers.
I am interested in the G1 (114 or 115 lsa) with MTIs stage IIe heads. Is there any way you coulds get a sound file???
Here's mine with MTI Stage IIE heads and the C2 cam 224-581-112

You car sounds like sex!!! I could easily live with that. The G1 is a little more cam though and I am interested to hearing how bad the idle is. I have a conservative exhaust system (see sig.) at least I think it is. I am hoping the Touring mufflers will beat down most of the idle, also I have no issue with setting the idle at 900-950 to smooth it out some more. Maybe put the G1 on a 114 or 115 LSA???
As I have said before I have already done the crazy choppy, lopey cams in my younger days and I do not want to get back into that. Opinions are hard to judge, but I do really like the sound of yours!!!
