Well it's a cam you should have a problem idling, remember when it comes to cams anything good for topend(big cam lobes) hurts low end especially idle, a larger or huge cam lobe creates good power by making more overlap and duration, well at idle a lot of overlap makes it harder for the motor to breath properly so it should "lope" at idle.
