Default g5x2 on a 114 +4

Anybody run this LSA? I always see everyone running a 112.

How much different would this be compared to a 112? I want the 114 +4because of the better vaccum characteristics and wider powerband (not going 4.10's).

Would I have PTV clearance issues?

I still want it to hit like a good sounding cam and not like a wuss small baby cam.

Check with either Patrick G, Predator Z or the guys at LG... I'm not too sure but it should be fine, I have milled AFR heads and I was told the X3 would fit without PTV issues but I am still going to flycut to be safe...Stock Heads?

Most of the guys in my area prefer the 114 LSA on the LG cams. And no, you should have no PTV issues with the X2 on a 114 on stock heads.

What about running this cam with a set of aftermarket heads?

You should be ok unless you decide to mill a lot, I have 59cc chamber heads with the X3 cam and I am going to flycut to be safe...

If going with aftermarket heads, get a custom ground cam to match them. I should've, and so should everyone else after I've learned about how heads and cam work together.
