Default ECS big blower cam question?

Hello! In the next few weeks I will be putting a cam in my LS6, I am wanting to go with the ecs "big" blower cam, with plans of doing an A&A kit in the future. Question is, I've heard the big blower cam is made for big blocks, but will the "big blower" cam be ok in a stock LS6? Any info will be helpful! Thanks!!

I just installed their big blower cam in my 02z and made 419/386... before the cam I made 391/379 with lg super pros, vararam, and corsa xtremes... the curve on the dyno graph after the cam was almost dead on to my graph before the cam install until around 5k and then that's where the power climbed... I was in the same boat as you, I wanted to do a cam that worked well with a supercharger since I plan on getting an ecs kit with a d1sc... this cam drives like stock in my opinion so you shouldn't have any driveability issues after tuning... I would also recommend pinning the crank since you will be in there anyway and you plan to supercharge in the future... hope my post helps in your decision and good luck
