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 can't remember. But,on the dyno it only netted me 5hp over the x3 cam and didn't drive as well. LG Will tell you if you call them,louis always told me when i asked.

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.
