Default LS6 cam?

Any body running a 2002 LS6 cam in a truck with a blower? It is a split profile favoring the exhaust quite a bit so I would think it would be perfect for forced induction. Does anybody know about the idle quality? Thanks.

The 01 LS6 cam would probably be better than the 02 and later LS6 cam.The idle quality is good wiyh either cam but the 01 would have better midrange and work better with 1000lbs more weight of a truck compaired to a Vette.

What are the specs on the '01 cam? I always heard the '02 was better but I never saw the specs of the '01.
