Picking a cam for a dual plane intake?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a cam for a street driven 6.2 with a dual plane intake. Is there any consideration to be given to cam specs specific to a dual plane? For example by contrast, “single plane” cams tend to cut on a tighter LSA. I spoke with summit racing and they said that as long as the operating range of the cam and intake matched, I should be ok. What do you think?

Summit makes a point. It comes down to where you want the power made. Dual planes are better at low and mid range power, but still do well all over.
With that in mind, you COULD then get a cam that gives you a bit more top end, knowing the manifold will hold up the lower end better than otherwise. Kinda like a power band-aid.
Where do you want the emphasis? If low and mid range is what you're after, get a cam ground for it. You will then have a coordinated setup,
