Mine does the same thing (still) and I used to wonder as well. But after reading on it, seems to be normal.
Your car sounds awesome btw!

Sounds perfect to me! You can hear the stock cam working. You can hear that on all the 5th Gens LS3 cars with an aggressive after market exhaust. Now go get a bigger cam! lol. By the way, love that wicker on the rear spoiler, where did you get that from.

My LS3 sounds like this, almost sounds like a random miss at idle. When I had my L99 it idled smooth as butter. My LS3 definitely idles a little bit rougher, which is fine by me. It's just the slightly higher lift stock cam in the LS3.
