Yea I herd before some buddy got in deep crap for givin the specs out but they all over the place now so I don't think it matters. They just need to take a chill pill and give us the specs to begin with.

I have no contract with LG and there is nothing in the forum rules that states anything about cam spec privacy.

You left out the +4 and +3 for the cams, respectively.

The X4 wasn't even asked about in this thread....so who wants to tackle the original question and post the G5XB blower cam specs?

predator-z is right w/ the specs. The 236/244 is a guess using the steps from the x2 to the x3 but the x4 doesn't follow that pattern. And I don't know anything about ther G5XB or G5XX spec's.

That is why I said neighborhood I had the exhaust right.
It took me 3 months to find the X4, you don't mind waiting another 3, I'm sure I'll pull the 2 others by then

this turned out to be more interesting than i intended. why is there so much secrecy about cam specs from LG? i don't want to have to call them to find out (lazy, i know) and if they won't tell me, why would i buy one from them?
