It's kinda like that tootsie roll pop commercial. The world may never know! Its the cam that I'm running right now. If you search hard enough you'll be able to find a bit of info on the specs.

i've got the X3 and they didn't tell me squat about the cam. they wouldn't even tell me what to degree the cam to, they just said "straight up".

next time i get a chance i'm going to do my own "cam doctor" on it and find out exactly what the specs are.

there are plenty of write-ups in this forum about the benefits of having your cam degreed in. i've got a wheel and know how to do it, so i figure i might as well do it.
i might give him a call when i get around to messing with it again.

G5x3 specs are 234/242 on xe-r lobes. LG cams are usually 2 degrees larger than the one below it. The x2 specs are 232/240.
