Sounds good.

I get mine back from gm Motorsport next week. It’s a full daily driver work Ute so the super stock was the way I went. The boy racer in me initially wanted to go maybe for more aggressive cam but I’d they are getting around 300rwkw and good street manners well it’s a better outcome than say 20-30kw more and dohey response below 3000rpm. I’m sure it will be plenty for a work Ute.

Thanks for posting.

that style type of cams great for the street, even for the traffic light racer were your only on it for for few seconds .
years ago they were called caravan cams, as that's what cars had fitted for towing
mind you a 6.0 or ls3 has more than enough power in stock form for towing:)
car sounds great enjoy

Was the X force system fitted prior to the cam?

Does it drone more since cam? Louder?

The x-force was fitted prior to cam. Prior to cam, the car was pretty quiet unless I drove it hard in the revs. After cam it's louder and sounds nice and has a lovely idle. I haven't had any drone at all after cam but had minor drone prior to cam.

I had cam, headers and cats done at same time as cam

Agreed.

The GM Motorsport videos on the cam didn’t give me the insights I wanted....

Well done. Seems like a great streetable package. Good to see someone not get lured by the very alluring aggressive cam and lumpy idle.
Is AFM still active? If so, what lifters were installed?
I assume GM Motorsport would sell the cam kits separately i.e. for local tuner to install and tune?

Yeah, they have a good online shop.
