New Round Of 'choose A Cam'! Hey guys. Almost done with my 6.0 buildup.
Bored +.030 (370ci)
Shotpeened stock rods w/ ARP bolts
Diamond Flatop Pistons with full floating wrist pins
Weiand/Holley Intake
Ported - Stock TB
Patriot sII 5.3 heads (velocity needed for 5000ft+ elevation)
New stock lifters, pushrods and stock rockers.
Now I need to choose a cam. I have an LS6 here, but everyone says its too mild. So.. What do you guys think?
I need to pass Colorado Emissions (IM240) and will be tuning it. Let make it thump!

5,000ft!!!
I can'thelp you with your cam, (don't know about smog)but maybe you can help me with mine.
I live at 4,800ft and am looking at building my 5.7LS1. So far I'm looking at stage II 5.3L heads (10.8:1) and a 228/228 (or so) cam with 112 lsa.
I'm running Long Tubes and the SLP OE airlid. Any advice for high altitude tuning or building?

At high altitude, forced induction rules! Buy blower friendly cams! Also, you can run more timing advance at the higher altitudes.
