Waste of time and labor for nothing.
LS6 cams aren't much of a difference either, somewhat but no enough to go tearing into the motor internally.
Plenty of nice streetable Comp Cams out there, some you can't even hear at idle but yield great results on the track.
Mine you can't hear it's an awesome little thing

if you want something that you can't really notice is in there, but will give you a nice power gain, pick up a Stealth II. an LS6 cam will give you a nice little pickup, but not like the Stealth II. most people won't even tell its there.

Ok,I actually really like big loping cams.Someone just told me it would help alittle bit because it was a ls6 style cam. Ill just dig up some money and buy one from the parts area. What would it be worth to sell this one.

Better off making a windchime with your stock cam and stock pushrods there is no market for stock cams really.
Mind you, lopey cams can come with costs for tuning and idle issues hence: bigger cams need to be tuned. If you haven't done headers, you should.......I wouldn't change a cam with the POS restrictive factory exhaust.
My cam went in and idled fine right away. We did some later on tuning but it ran fine from the get go.
