Default Help with cam selection

I used to have a ta with the g5x3. I want to do a big cam and was looking into the ms3 or ms4 but now I'm reading that those are old news. Any recommendations?

Sure you can get a custom variant of let's say a MS3 and add or subtract a degree of duration with a slight change in lift but it is not going to make a Significant difference in power.

Custom definitely still has it's place with big cube or fi builds but I do not see a point with your average LS1 build.

That being said TSP is using new proprietary lobes on their camshafts, so I would not hesitate to run any of their products.
