Default MS3 HP/TQ #'s!! Post them here

I'm leaning towards getting the MS3 but i've been seeing a lot of different numbers with this cam. I've seen some guys making 400-415 and some others have been much lower, one guy was only making 366hp with a mail order tune from TSP ... I'm just wanting to see some numbers from other guys running the MS3 with stock heads

I had a buddy of mine that was running it with a set of Stage 1 heads (not sure of the brand, LS6's i think) with all the bolt on's, ported fast 90/90, etc. Made 444/385.

I am getting ready to put a MS3(114LSA) into a 408. Ordering the 408 today but will be sometime before I get #'s on that though. Going in with a ported FAST 92/92 and 1 7/8" LTs on top of it with my PRC 2.5 5.3 heads. Never had a chance to find out what I made on the stock bottom end though, spun a rod bearing 250 miles after the install So I am technically going to be mild camming the 408 with the MS3. Should be possible for me to break 500whp with supporting mods.

I think the MS3 needs a good tuner for great power for sure. A buddy of mine hit 410 with an LS6 intake and lontubes with a MS3 only.

I'll post for my friend since he doesn't come on here. 2000 C5 with LTs, catback, other bolt-ons but no 90/90 put down 412/390 on a dynojet SAE. Stock drivetrain and 3.42s but I'm pretty sure he was running chrome 18s at the time.

I have an stalled auto (mods in sig) and put down 430rwhp/ 392tq locked and 420rwhp/370tq unlocked. Pretty happy with the results!

There is a 'cam only' sticky above. I searched it and found 8 posts with MS3 cams.

What intake was used? LS6 or Fast? Thanks. Nice track times considering the DA.

My 383 cam is about the same as a MS3. Works well when everything is set up right.

I have an LS6 manifold. I figure with a FAST set-up and some weight reduction I could get pretty close to 11.0's/10.90's. The runs I have made so far were with no skinnies and completely stock suspension.
