Default Need Some Help?????

Alright guys this is my first post even though I have been reading this forum for awhile. I have a 2002 RCSB 5.3 Z-71. It has the ls1 fans, 145 amp alternator, magnaflow catback and tb by-pass. I am searching for a cam. I have a friend who is going to sell me his ls1 hotcam for $125 if I want it. I use this truck as a daily driver and to pull my 21foot bassboat on the weekends and I am not sure if this would be a good cam for me. I am tryin to do a budget buildup but, I want the truck to perform well. Will the hotcam be a good choice for the money or would the 01 ls6 cam etc., be better?


Thanks

I am also alittle nervous about the driveability of this hotcam and the mpg effect it will have. If anyone has ran the ls1 hotcam, how do you like it?
