ls3 fbo 470 whp
factory longblock. Just a bullshit carbon fiber intake from LG, LG 1 3/4 headers and xpipe, and the supposedly "g6x3" cam.
Dragged a grandsport that laid down 510 whp built by chucke cheese @ HHP here in houston, with some bald *** Nittos and him on ET streets. Then again, not sure if he needed a driver mod.
Just looking to see what cam I have without ripping this thing apart.

Car drives great. Feels plenty strong just somewhat concerned on the number and if it really has a g6 cam if not so I can install one. Don't want to buy a g6 cam then yank everything off to find out I have a g6 after all ya know.

its a hassle to take off everything just to make sure the cam is degreed. Cam was installed by " LG " so I'd assume they would degree it considering they charge about 2k+ for the install. Either way, im just curious as to what other people are putting down with similar mods, thats all. Im almost positive the car doesn't have the g6 but who knows.

"you let the mph do the talking" but yet you are fixated on whether they dyno number matches the name of the cam you want?
You said the tune was rough and the dyno sheet says LG so can we presume the dyno sheet is from the previous owner with the rough tune?
What is the weight and mph?

The track is closed so I can't get a MPH number. Reason why I want to see some dyno figures is to compare peak numbers and rpm to figure out if this car has a g6x3 camshaft. Same camshaft should peak in the same area with similar modifications even on different dynos. I can't manage to find a dyno graph from LG that isn't already outdated by the image hosting website or if I manage to find one its of an ls2 or an ls3 with trick flows.
When I say the calibration file was bad, I mean that the means to achieve proper afr's and ignition timing was not the "proper" way. 12.5 AFR leaving the stock maf transfer curve is the same as 12.5 AFR with a proper dialed in maf curve. Both achieve the same fuel mix in different ways. One is right, one is wrong. Power shouldn't change too much at WOT only part throttle. Dyno sheet is from the previous tune file correct.
Thanks for the input

You seem to have a really bad attitude towards LG. If you want to complain about a personal experience, there's a specific section for that. Try to keep it technical in these sections please.
You can't point at the dyno numbers and state...."I have this cam" or "I don't of that cam"!
Dynos are different. If the same car could be dyno'ed on 10 different dynamometers in exactly the same conditions, it would come up with 10 different HP/TQ readings; especially if the dynamometers are different makes/models.. Even if they were all the same make and model, you'd still come up with different readings....just that they wouldn't have so much variance.
If it were my car and I knew how to tune, I'd get the tune right as best as I could.
Then.....I'd enjoy the hell outta that car.....until the tracks opened up next spring.
Then.....I'd race it over a couple or three weekends to see what it does.
And if it performs where I'd expected, I'd leave it the hell alone.
To me.....you do seem a bit too hung-up on dyno numbers....and you definitely have a perverted obsession (jus' messin' with ya
) with the g6x3 cam.....
