What are you talking about??? good power till 6K? Do a search, I posted my numbers per rpm. It made over 300lbs/tq from 2,700rpm-6,500rpm.
Yes, this cam needs to breath, and yes you will be reving the engine to 7k with the right mods. In an auto, I would think a 4,500stall and 4.10 gear would be ideal....If you think a 4.10 gear in a ten bolt is a smart idea...

yeah, there is something wrong there. I have an M6, so the feel is a little different but the power band should be the same. Mine idles like a beast, daily drives very well with no loss in low rpm tq compared to stock. At 4000 rpm, the thing wakes up like a bat outta hell. So of course, my problem is trying to launch the car with the current 3.42 gears.
ms4 and bolt ons here. No u/d pulley, made 390 to the wheels with a unlocked 3500 stall converter. Just found out I've had a leaker intake manifold this whole time....why tuning has been a bitch. I have an ls6 intake manifold with the stock ls1 coolant lines....grinded down the fins under the ls6, but I guess that wasn't enough. So obviously I have more power left on the table now.
i pulled 116mph before the cam and only change i made was the cam with same conditions air condition and trapped 123mph...i only have a 230/230 cam so there are other options...the gain was 123-116= 70rwhp we can say 60rwhp cause i ported the throttle body a hair more and dropped about 30lbs...

I do not mean to hijack the thread by anymeans so if my post bothers you let me know and I will make my own thread, I just saw all the ms4 guys in here and need a couple questions answered. I just put the ms4 in 2 days ago and the install was flawless, but I'm having a hell of a time to get it to idle. Yes I know i need a tune but is there anything temporary to keep the beast idled? I have tried adjusting the idler screw but that doesnt seem to be enough, it just surges too much and dies, also once i finally get it to idle as soon as i blip the throttle just a tad she dies again.
The 81hp was a GM High Performance magazine dyno test!

My car made 390 rwhp with JUST the MS4 and a lid, no free mods, no longtubes, no nothin. The car now has longtubes and quite a bit of other bolt ons and I love it. Sure there are other cams that make better bottom end torque, but when this thing reaches the upper rpms, hold on.
