Default PP LS6 stage II and G5X3

Anyone actually running this setup? I serched and all I got was you might have PV clearance issues but no real answers. Although I did stop at page 7. Dial is just way to damn slow for in depth searches. If you are using this setup and you had to do work what did you do?

I'm very curious as well. Seriously considering this package for my 402.

Well, I finally got a reply from LG about it and there is a PV clearance issue. So that answers that question.

G5X3 on a 114 LSA will clear no problem but a 112 will need valve reliefs.

It should make great power,Nick Y. has the PPII and the 231-237 setup in his vette and it made 420RW and trapped 122 on DR's.I think thats pretty good if u ask me so the X3 cam should do even better.

You'll want to check that in the car for sure. The valves on the PP heads sit higher on the seats (atleast on mine they did) and I lost about .020" of clearance. Everyone said my F13 would clear no problem on a unmilled head with a 2.02" valve, but it was very tight and I had to retard it a couple degrees to get the intake side to clear properly.
