Strong #'s up top, but around town under 3.5K do you notice the loss of HP/TQ for daily driving.....if you were to keep the 3.42's?
Trying to decide between g5x-2, TSP231/237, and 224/224 .581 112 for street action with very little track usage.
I really want a cam that has at least the same HP/TQ on low-end as my stock cam and right now I have the g5x-2 (NIB) sitting at my house

I am happy with the 3.42s for now. I can't imagine this thing with 4.10s. I will wait until I break the stock gear to switch.
I don't plan on racing all that much, I got this cam primarily to run on the street, and I can see that it will perform quite well there, even w/3.42s. The G5x2 is a very similar cam, so I would expect similar results as far as driveability.

It is a 112 LSA.
Great to see good results! Those guys at Speed Inc. do a great job tuning! Those 231.237 lobes sure seem to work well IMHO!! Looks pretty strong to me!! Congrats!!

I had a 218/222 .562 113 LSA before the cam. The only things changed were the TSP ported oil pump, Rollmaster double timing chain, and the TSP 231/237 cam. My mods are in my sig. I had 405 rwhp before and 383 after. Torque is 386 before and 358 after.

J/KSeriously, something bad is wrong for you to actually have lost power. I am not that good at internet diagnosis, so maybe someone else will chime in, might wanna start a new thread. Right off, maybe the cam is installed or ground wrong, maybe valvetrin issues (valve float or incorrect preload), maybe wanna do a leakdown test to make sure no problems with the shortblock,etc. Good luck with it, Shawn
