sorry to break the news
but its too big for any daily driven ls1 and will not be usable even with full bolt ons....
smaller cams dont make numbers but they can and 80% of the time will out run a over sized cam

i dont get it.........
my friend has an ms4 in his bird, drives fine on the street. i think its all in thetune my friend
my good friend dd's his MS3 no issues at all, im confused with what your saying
I dd my ms3 T/A and no complaints here. Dido on the tune part
I think he hit post thread instead of post reply
no im tired of seeing ppl asking about them with a stocvk car and think its bad ass to have a cam that size
it does not work as well as a smaller cam..
it may make more hp but @ ungodly rpm and most fo the guys asking about them have a hand held tuners and a k&n drop in
.... my point is ppl need to look at smaller cams and they will be happer then they would with BIG UGLY STICK
the cam i have makes 6 more hp then stock
and u picked up over 1/2 sec and 5 mph at the strip i went from 12.9s to 12.3s and from 109 -114
thats my point
Well the ms3 power band is 3 or 4 grand to 7 grand. And if I remember correctly that's where most drag races take place in. Plus mine has pretty good street manors as well so it's not that bad
This makes absolutely zero sense. Are you old enough to drive? :think: :haha:Quote:

im still lost, people look into bigger cams to make more power. a cam swap that grants 6hp over stock isnt even worth the time to swap IMO.Quote:

Im perfectly fine with cruising around town and then when I get to the track launching at over 4k IN MY POWER BAND!
So to the original poster the larger cams serve a purpose!
wow... are you ever wrong...Quote:

Yes you are correct and don't forget the high lift springs and a large stall for us automatic peopleQuote:
