This has been talked about quite a bit lately... short answer is no, gotta buy the cam to get the specs. Search is your friend.

If you try hard enough to figure out the cam specs (as I did) eventurally you will get them. I will say this if you take the X2 make it just a hair bigger grind it on a 114 LSA you will have a real good idea what the cam is.
It is still a 23x/24x and the lift is VERY similar as well.

I have the G5X2 in my car now, but building a 382, I want to have the cam in the new motor so its ready to drop in. And the engine builder said he could get a good price on the comp cam that is more custom to my needs

Sure it would be cheeper than LG's cams. They are priced for extra profit and most other cams are cheeper.
However most other cams are just cam's.

My choice would be X3 because from the graphs I've seen it makes a little better TQ down low and from the posts appers to be more street friendly.

T-Rex makes more peak # though.

I have the X3 on a 114 in my ride and it is great on the street with 4.33 gears and an m6. I am sure it would do great with a 4.10 also.

Exactly why LG doesnt want to release the specs on the X3.... his work and then someone copies it and does it chaper for a no investment.
