Does Anyone Have The G5 X3 Cam

I purchaced this cam last week and I was wondering how much power to expect. I have a mild 222/224 576 576 114 now and put down 390. What should I expect?

If your heads are any good you should make at least 450 with an M6 and good tune.

Do you have an adjustable timing chain TJ? If not, there is no "degreeing" to do. There is only one way the cam can go in. The only way you can "degree" an LS1 cam is with an adjustable timing cahin setup.
