I am trying to decide between a T-REX and G5X3 cam. I am road racing, not drag racing, so I need the motor to hold together. Any suggestions?
I've got a 2002 Z06 that I just installed a TRex cam a couple of months ago. (242/248, 608/612, 110lsa)
Also installed dual valve springs, hardened pushrods, dual row timing chain, underdrive pulley, Kooks 1 7/8" headers, x-pipe, and no cats.
Already had Borla 4-tip stingers and a Vararam.
Has a fairly radical cam lobe and idle to it. Extremely loud with the no cats. Wouldn't want to have to drive constantly in stop-n-go trafffic, as it doesn't like to hover under 2500 rpm's. Little resonance in the 2000-3000 rpm range.
Lot's of power, mostly at the high end of the rpm band.
