After putting about 100 miles on my 2025 5BW, is a tiny bit of idle roughness normal? I notice it with my hand on the shifter at idle, can even see my hand shake a tiny amount. It’s not perceptible on the tach.

No check engine, no misfiring under any load.

It’s almost like a mild performance cam, but less pronounced.
 
Don't worry about anything except staying below 4000 RPM for 1500 miles. Break it in properly and you will have no troubles.
 
Yup, LT4 and DI it's pretty smooth considering it's 650/650+ @ like 3k It has just enough cam feel to not be overly obtrusive imo. I am not really down with the Ol' CHOP,CHOP stuff.
 
Awesome, thanks for putting my mind at ease.
