Why the hell do they charge so much for just a cam? That's nuckin futz!

 

I'll suggest calling Lou at 972-272-7753 and talking to him personally. Lou is one of the nicest guys in the industry. Tell him that you really want to run his cam but you are leaning towards just buying direct from Comp using his specs. I may be wrong but I'll bet he'll work with you. For what it's worth, I'm using his
G5-X2 cam in my automatic transmission equiped 10 second daily driver and while it shakes the car pretty good at idle it has been a great cam. It has no problem areas. It's off idle response is great and it pulls like a freight train. Tuning is an absolute necessity with the cam. I think you'll be very happy with it.

 

any way you can get a sound clip of your car at idle? i need some clips of cars at idle with different cams so i can see what the biggest one i can get away with is

 

Red91tsiawd, I sent you a PM.

 

returned. anyone know any good sites for sound clips with certain cams in em?

 

what exactly are the specs of that cam?

 

232/240 .595/.609 112 lsa. It may be .598 on the intake lift, but that is close.

 

I can do a cam like that for a lot less using a XE-R lobe from Comp Cams

 

That is exactly what I was going to say!

 

I got it from another supplier who assured me it was the same cam only without the LG name on it for $375 shipped. Comp grinds them for LG...

But I was told not to advertise where I got it...

 

all i can say is its a HUGE cam!!!!!!!!!!!! it made my buddies all drag car sound like a tiny cam! i want it bad but i think after talking with Gold Z (which btw, knows ALOT about these cars ) he helped me decide to go with the G5 which is a bit smaller than the other but still makes good power

 

I go to school at Purdue with Louis Gigliotti (Lou's son)...he had his '98 Z28 (the black one seen on the website)...which was sold last year for a FRC C5....and he had the G5-X2 in it and it sounded unbelievable with his LT's, y-pipe, and open borla...when he was on the gas it sounded like a raspy exotic sound..just awsome! He has also talked me into the G5 cam, still makes good power and on a 112lsa sounds HUGE!!!! Also would be more streetable with my A4.

 

Check at Futral Motorsports, they are making some badass camshafts, Alan at futral just had a 418ci LS1 dyno at 618 rwhp, he also had a 346 heads and cam LS1 dyno at 512rwhp with no short belt. He makes some badass camshafts and I think he might even be having a group purchase going on them. $380 I think was the price on a cam only.
