Default Cam Help please

I have a 2005 Gto. My mods are in my sig. I am contemplating the G5X3 cam.

How should this cam work with this setup? I will be installing a ported LS2 intake as well. My goals for the car are a street/highway car. I will rarely go to the track. I will split time with my truck driving to and from work.

I have lurked these forums for a little while and know there is a wealth of knowledge here. Just looking for some help deciding. I am crunched for time as well.


Thanks
Jamie

The cam should be a great addition to your LS2. I would opt for the X3 on a 112 as opposed to the 114 as well.

Good luck.

So, you don't think the G5X3 is too big for a gto w/stock heads? I was kind of worried about how heavy the car was.
