Default anyone running a vrx5 cam?

i have a 2001 camaro ss. i wanted to see what other peoples opinions are on the vrx5 cam and what are good parts to run with that cam. i also have the vrx5 cam with a 102 fast intake, underdrive pulley, 102 throttle body, slp headers,slp loud mouth center exhaust.

i run it. made 399.6whp abd 382ft/lbs with it and a mail order tune. other than the cam my car has pacesetter lt's, ls6 intake and ported stock tb. I used the valvetrain upgrade kit from PRC when i did my swap and a ported ls6 oilpump with ls2 chain. overall i think its a good cam.

I just finished my install with VRX5 with all the supporting valvetrain upgrades and I love it. It sounds absolutely amazing and the driveabiiltily to great to.

I got a base tune from Vengeance and it still comes great without being dyno tuned. Can't wait till I get it tuned.

Mcallister513,
What else is on the c5? Is that the stock longblock?
Sounds very good.

All stock except cam and exhaust with no cats and that's still through factory manifolds. I have heads and headers coming soon. I'm excited to hear it then!
