Default Anyone running an X-1 Cam with Automatic?

If you are running an automatic with an X-1 cam please tell me how it is working for you and tell me about your set up and your dyno and or track times. I was also interested in the power band in relationship to the RPM or at what RPM range the cam likes to stay in for power.
Thanks in advance

I have the X1 ground on a 114 lobe...in my 382 Stroker. It works great, very mild (to me), no surging or dying, idles and drives stock and pulls great. I would have gone bigger, but MTI told me this a good cam for my application.

Look for a guy named Josey, he ran one on a 112 and this was his daily driver.

I heard the same thing also that the X1 cam also behaves very well for a fairly aggressive cam. Do the x1 on a 112lsa cam for optimal performance!
