They're sending you the most recent set now right? Did they say they've made a new set to address the fitting issue?

What are the pros and what are the cons of cams? I know this is a noob question.

Turns out they're 0.8mm off...

Aftermarket cams make more power but the bigger you go the less drivable it gets on the street.

I think esponda has a LLT.

Well now I am wondering if I was actually sent and LFX set of cams and not the LLT

Cams are in so hopefully we can start tuning next week if our new MAF pipe shows up. They are lumpy but my tuner thinks they'll sound even better after a tune haha

EFI live seems to be the way to go with tuning these cams on the LFX.

zcorvette04 · 08-31-2013, 02:48 PM

Is mace selling them now or just special order?

That's good. Still waiting for the programmer off Steve though...

Honestly, don't buy them unless they've been officially released. Saves both you and Mace hassles and money.

zcorvette04 · 09-01-2013, 03:40 PM

Well then I guess I'm gonna wait some more. Hopefully they work this stuff out soon

So after a few weeks we've finally got the software sorted and now we can use EFI Live's programmer with the car. We can get it on the dyno now

Power from the cams is anyone's guess at the moment.

Have you driven if and felt a difference?

vong · 09-07-2013, 01:01 AM

Haven't driven it in almost a year mate. Not sure if I'd be able to tell anybody how the cams feel though. All I had on the car was an otr and remote tune before it left for cams and 3.7 diff gears.

Man... There is people on this site that would start a lynch mob and go after the vendor that had their car for more than a couple months... Kudos to you for your patience and for being the guinea pig for the cams!
