Sounds damn good. I'm considering a 227/231 110 LSA. Did you have the cam specked out for you? Also, who ground the cam?

It is a custom cam spec'd by Slowhawk Performance. I forget who ground the cam though.

Made numbers in sig on stock heads and stock ls1 intake.

Turn ignition key to on position. Press odometer reset button for 12 seconds. That will turn off your oil change light

The 04 GTO I bought had MS3 cams already installed. And the car was dynotuned by Texas Speed. Not sure of the LSA. Sounds wicked. Excellent drive-ability for a somewhat aggressive cam. Only negative is when you first start the car, the rpms drop and the car almost dies but then the rpms pick back up. I have heard this is a common problem for the more aggressive cams.

The tune should should have taken care of that, you shouldn't be having that problem at all.

I may look into that down the road. I talked to another person with the same cam but different tuner who had the same issue.

That is what I went with. Im not sure if I want more or not. The car is pretty sweet as is, but I wanted more "lope". Remeber more lope = less street manners in almost all cases.
