Yea, but not bigger than the MS3, so it fits in between the two in terms of top-end power. It also has a great torque curve, like you'd expect from the split and exhaust lift + the X-ER lobes.

how about the LG G5X-4 cam compared to the latest TSP 233/239 on 112lsa will the G5X-4 cam loose mid range power compared to the TSP 233/239 cam with every other mod else being equal ( also 3.42 gears and M6)?

how both cams will act in a street race from a 30-40 mph roll if both used 3.42 gears and M6?

how about 1/4 mile drag race?

thanks.

SouthFL...that torque curve looks beautiful. Thats 350 ft.lbs. at around 3300 RMPs correct? What did you make without the heads and just the cam. That graph makes me want that cam.

The nice jump in tq was thanks to a switch from LS6 intake & SLP LT's to FAST 90/90 & QTP HVMC LT's.
Cam only,

the 233/239 is what I'm going with, that is if TSP ever calls or emails me back.
I talked to John on Fri for a whole list of goodies.
Anyone know if they're open today?

Correct. It hit 400 with the 10 bolt.
Either way, the cam really wakes up when you give it breathing room, as shown by the huge 90rwhp jump when heads, 90/90 and QTP HVMC LT's were added (along with being reinstalled dialed in and retuned).

That what I was surprised with was the huge gain from pretty much just heads.

Nah, the bolt-ons played a huge role (along with the heads). With the heads, ls6 intake and SLP LT's it put down 425rwhp. Then the 90/90 and HVMC LTs woke it up substantially.
