For the V6 Firebird:

Xtreme Energy L36 Cam 1 Specs:
- Duration at .050 = 191 degree intake/201 degree exhaust
- Intake Lift = .300 (.480 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
- Exhaust Lift = .312 (.496 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
- Lobe Separation = 110.0


Xtreme Energy L36 Cam 2 Specs:
- Duration at .050 = 201 degree intake/205 degree exhaust
- Intake Lift = .312 (.496 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
- Exhaust Lift = .300 (.480 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio)
- Lobe Separation = 112.0


I don't know anything about lobe and duration and lift or any of that.

What are the performance benefits for each cam (according to thier numbers)?

Is one for a nitrous application and the other better for NA?

How about "fuck yeah!" as soon as I can come up with the cizzash for ya. I really want that cam of yours for the blue goat! Gotta get thru Christmas first though.

Not buying the V6 cam right away but planning on it after the first of the year. Got a few things we'll be doing anyway so figure we might as well upgrade the cam while we're tearing shit apart! LOL!

I just don't know what to go with... :(

Go witht he cam on a 112. Take as much duration as you want.

By the way, I have some slightly used 918s that will go very well with that GT2-3. Check my post in the for sale section.
Or, if you want to go all out, I have some new in box 918s with Titanium retainers. ??????????????

just a note...the first cam will require some porting on the heads to really get the performance, but it will lope nice :)
