Also, my main goal is to beat just bout every 5.0 that's n/a.. unless u know how them bros are. Hiding nitrous and gutting it to sub 3k lmao. Hoping it'll be a strong runner. Hoping for traps above 120 for sure

Just curious why you do not want to spin the motor? You have a 2002 block and LS1's love rpm... anything under 6800rpm is leaving a lot on the table with most cams including the one you are purchasing.

Well I'm hoping for it to be right around 6800. I know the 01-02's have better rod bolts, just would like to make a real nice torque curve that Carrys up to 6800 or so. Don't really interest me to spin up to 7k until I'm ready to do a further build on another car..
