This is why I didnt vote. If you cant speak from exp. you shouldnt even speak. But then again without opinion youd get no polls. There isnt going to be anyone who has tryed every cam in the poll.

I wonder how many voters have one of the mentioned cams and what qualifies someone to vote on the 3 they dont have.

It is my poll and I say anybody and their mother can come in here and vote.
You don't have to have those cams to be knowledgable about them. There are plenty of guys on this forum who know more about a set of heads or a cam than anyone else and have no desire to ever run that setup.

Cams are like women, everyone has a slightly diffrent opinion of what is perfect!
I just built a iron 370 with a t-rex and it runs very strong. No dyno numbers yet, but feels like it is 500 or real close. The 110 lobe sep makes killer midrange torque that those 112-114 cannot come close, but the computer tuners sure do cry when tuning the 110 sep cams. That is the diffrence in tuning a race motor vs a daily driven street motor. Don't get me wrong 112-114 seps are ok for mild street cars, big inch motors, blowers, turbos, or nitrous over 250 hp, just not the best for n/a or a smaller nitrous tune up (250hp or less).

Yea well start shipping them out so people can actually buy them without having to drive a thousand miles and maybe that could be a viable option for many LS1 owners.

Better not... The AZPSO2 was already "attempted" to be copied by a POS shop that can't do anything on their own!

Too bad they got it wrong!

That's fine, we'll just see the powerful numbers come from and the business go to the places like TSP, Thunder, LG, etc.

When you decide to sell it to the public post it up, I'm sure you will make some money. The TRex, MS4/4, Torquer, TRak, and even though they claim it's a secret the G5X3 and 4 have public specs and you don't see anyone stealing their combo's. They all seem to sell pretty well. But whatever, it's your cam.

you dont think hundreds have stolen the LG specs? I know a few locally that went directly to comp to save 30 bucks... doesnt take much to find their grinds in the comp catalog... Had they kept them under wraps like I did chances are no one would have them. In addition there is so little money in selling camshafts that the short term benefit of selling hundreds wont outweigh the long term effects of the grind being copied.
