Bad in terms of what? The stock 5.3 would get better mpg, and make about the same (if not more) power than the rv cam in a small block.

If you do decide you want a cam and such, do all that timing chain and oil pump stuff at the same time while the engine is out. It makes life much easier, especially when doing the oil pump since the o-ring can be such a pain.
