I saw this over on Corvetteforum.com for a cam only install result. I thought some folks might be interested since the question of cam only stuff had come up recently. Looks like Lou is doing a cam install special too. This is the cam we are running in the H/C Z06 I'm driving right now, except we are running on a 112LSA.

Below are the dyno results of the LG Cam Only package on GodSpeed's 2003 Z06. The baseline was 363.3 RWHP and 349.4 RWTQ when the car was bone stock with 500 miles on it. The second graph after the addition of the LG Pro Long tube headers and the LG Cam only package using the G5X-3 on a 114 was 427.1 RWHP and 401.2 RWTQ. The gain over stock is 63.5 RWHP and 51.8 RWTQ translating to a 485 BHP and 455 lb/tq package at the engine.
The car also had an under drive pulley, air bridge, and air filter added to it. The heads, intake manifold, throttle body, and cat back are all still stock.




Here is a link to the LGM Cam Only Special thread:

FREAKIN AWESOME POWER for stock headed LS6. Running that bad boy on a 114 lsa may just be what the DOCTOR orders for those looking for a very streetable bad boy cam with stock LS6/1 heads! CONGRATS TO LGM!!!!

I'd be interested to see his ~390whp graph with the LG Headers compared to this one with the G5X-3 added to it, to see how the torque down low is affected.

Wonder why he left out the midpoint of his header/shaner/TRAP/ stuff?

how streetable is this cam? i would like to hear a audio clip if they are around. thanks. what a proven powerful cam.

If you follow that link to the CorvetteForum there is a clip of Godspeeds car and in the sig of my post (about 15 posts down)(MTWallet), I have the same 2 clips in my sig below.

i wonder if it would be too much for my little LS1 A4 with a 4400 stall converter? I will be in the market for a cam around spring time so hopefully by then their will be some people already running setups like this in A4 cars too so i can see what it is capable of. Do we know the specs on this cam yet or is that remaining secret for now?

Hey J-Rod when you heading back out to HRP??

Does this car still have stock cast iron manifolds?!?!

How much does a G5x3 cam cost?

That's incredible!

I think it would be a better idea to knock a few degrees of duration out of it if you want a more streetable grind. The intake closing event appears to be right on the money and to widen the lobe separation, just to reduce overlap, is not the way to go... that's just one guy's opinion...

Congrats on the killer torque curve...

Ed would you reduce duration on the intake side or the exhaust side or both? If say it's around 232/240 would you be thinking more like 231/237 with the same intake valve timing?

Thanks

Ed Curtis

Actually both sides but I would slow down the ramp speed on the intake whereas leave the faster exhaust lobe intact... Seems to work pretty good from what I've been getting from customer feedback... I'm trying to get a few new lobes finallized around mid-January that accomplish exactly what I want for the AFR heads and they "may" work for other people's products...

All "***"umptions right now since all I have for data on the AFR heads is based strictly from the pattern heads. Production pieces will probably vary slightly but who knows? Bottomline, I think some of these AFR specific cams will work for certain Patriot heads and some Absolute stuff I've seen... Including the above example..

Ed, cool...thanks

Ed, I love it when you show up...


Thanks for the input...

He he he he...

Jarrod,

Some people do... some people don't...

Have a great holiday everyone!

J-Rod thanks for posting up, I was logging in to do it myself and saw the thread. I am quiet pleased with the package.

Are you referencing the gap in the dyno graph? I think this was just the case of the ignition pickup not working. I don't and have never had a shaner TB (still stock) nor a TRAP - I just have a carbon air bridge and the "Warhead" filter directly connected to the MAF. The car did a best of 393RWHP and 382RWTQ before the cam.

Here is the video clip:

Damn nice numbers.... Keep it up Lou!! Jeremy keep it between the lines!!! hell of a ride you have!!

It fit without flycutting on a 114LSA didn't it?

That cam spec works great, I've had it on a 112LSA since March. Guess I have the original

Godspeed

Funny you should say that, I received a "Exhibition of Speed" ticket yesterday afternoon. "But officer I wasn't even speeding!"

JakeL

No, I was referencing the fact that you have the stock graph on there instead of your 393rwhp graph, which seemed odd to me.

Regarding the mods, apologies, must have misremembered. Perhaps you posted thinking you *were* going to do the ported TB to get to 400.

That said, I'd be interested to see your previous dyno of 393 with the LG's and tuning superimposed on this one, instead of your stock graph, to see how the X-3 affects torque down low on a well modded, but non-cammed car.

Cheers!

Actually I had wanted to do one, but apparently they are as scarce as hens teeth. After the holidays when I return I will overlay the stock one. For the purpose of the LG Cam Only Special, I felt the stock baseline and the final dyno results were most appropiate.
