Default vortec max cam options

alright guys im wiring up a vortec max 6.0 in a rockcrawler for a guy he had to pick between a regulaur 6.0 or a max 6.0 the max ran him 1400 complete with all accessories pcm tac pedal and all
im guessin this is the early 6.0 max so what are the specs on it
what heads are on it
do u think it was worth 1400

but what would be a good cam for crawling somethin that makes hellacious torque but has good idle charecteristics

317 heads, 14 is a lil high.. How many miles on it?? Rock crawling you will want a lower duration cam... And smaller primaries, to get that TQ effect

so what in the hell is so special about the vortec max trucks?
hell all 6.0s have the 317s or 035s
30k on the max
40k on a 6.0 from an escalade or denali one they want 1100
