JBP LE5 Triflow Cams

Does anyone know anything about the J Body Performance triflow cams? On JBP's wepage it says they work with the LE5 but arent listed under solstice, only cobalt, g5, and hhr. I was wondering if anyone knew how well they work and whether or not you need a tune after installation.
Thanks,
Bob

I have them, I'll post a review once my build is completed.

your car will run after you install them, but yeah you'll need a tune.

I just didn't want there to be any timing issues and blow the engine. Do you think it would be cool to isntall and drive about 200 miles to the tune shop near my house, because Im at school and I';d like to install it there. You think it would screw up the car?

It will not screw up the car when you install the cams as the only cams available for the 2.4L right now are all regrinds of existing stock cams. WE have been running a set of cams in Randy's 2.4L now for an extended period of time that was custom ground for us and have had no issues. There are a couple tools that do make it much easier to change the cams in the car, and I would suggest you get a hold of them if possible, otherwise it is going to be tricky to hold the timing chain, cam gears and everything else in position while swapping the cams in the motor. Also I would strongly suggest taking a look at the workshop manual before doing the swap, as you also need to pull the timing chain tensioner, reset it and re-engage it when doing the cam swap.

Hope that helps!
Dave
