Cammed 4.8L come in

Yeah I know it has a little more lift but most people consider both of these small cams compared to what some people are running. Just wanted to know if there would be enough of a noticeable difference to justify getting the 02+ over the 01?

If i were you this is what i would go with...
Comp XE lobes
210/216 .556/.561 109+4
it should put your overlap around -5* combined with the stock TC it should idle just fine, probably on the stock idle settings. to put things in prespective, my first cam the 220/220 114+4 it had -8* of overlap and i ran stock idle settings with no issues what so ever and that is when i was learning how to tune.
Also the low LSA and small duration would bump the DCR up which should help with the TQ problem...
if you notice it is really similar to my current cam, but the rpm range will be alot lower. the overlap on my current cam is +1*....

Yep that those are the right specs. The icl shouldn't mess with the pr length. I would just get some hardened 7.4s and some ls6 springs and call it done...
