LO3 cams do not have that high of a lift.

That combo might score you 30 horses, especially because of the cam.

Thats the LB9-M5 camshaft specs. The L03 has SIGNIFIGANTLY less cam, its known as the PEANUT cam on here. It is usaully stamped with a 155 on it. 179/194 @ .050, .350/.385, on a 109 LSA, its TINY.

EDIT- I just looked at how old this post is
