Mike doesn't give the specs out for this cam. I know that it is not very aggressive though.

Wow that's crazy they won't give you specs even after you buy the damn thing lol. That's an insane gain for a mild cam

No way that cam is mild...LS1 has been around for almost 20yrs, nobody is going to reinvent the wheel and produce a "mild" cam that gains 70whp. There is simply other mods that were done along with the cam or its pretty large.

I would have to agree with you, but the OP is saying it's not very aggressive.

OP did you do anything else at all besides the cam? Maybe a more agressive tune or something...anything??

Ok well it's definitely not mild. Never said it was. There are quite a few threads on here with results of this cam. He put in a racetronix pump and Bosch 42# injectors. The mods I posted are the mods that I have.

Ok so I'll assume the tune isn't any more aggressive or anything like that. With that said I'm still very surprised that "moderate cam only" gained 70 hp, but it is what it is and that's awesome. It will be interesting to see what you gain at the track

Pretty large for a 346 as I expected.

Nope that's not the dominator cam that I have. I came across that car too. I was told it's closer to 23x/23x

And if it was that size of a cam I think the idle would be radical. Or am I wrong? I'll post a video with in a day. LT headers cats and lm2. It sounds pretty smooth.

Yeah if it were the mentioned specs it would have a very rough idle. Sounds like they may have made more than one version of this cam

This cam has been around for almost 15 years from a highly reputable well known tuner. Whatever the cam is I am happy with the results I got from it.
