Default 5.3 w/ 02 LS6 cam and stock converter?

I'm thinking of picking up an 02 LS6 cam if I find one cheap. I'll run it in my Silverado for a while (which I'm about to put the T56 in), but long term upgrade to something bigger when I do heads. At that point I was thinking I might swap it over to my Tahoe (which is all stock...5.3, A4, but with 4.56 gear and 32" tires).

Thus my question, how would the 02 LS6 cam work with a 5.3 and the stock converter in a Tahoe with 4.56 gears and 32" tires?

Thanks,
Chris

It'll probably perform pretty well. The cam's not too extreme, and the tires aren't all that tall, so the 4.56s will go a long way to help the engine reach a good powerband for the cam.
