Default Chevy truck 6.0... what cam?

Got a Chevy Z71 bought a 6.0 to go in it but before she goes in I want to put a cam in it. I only use the truck on the weekends. 75% of the time i'm pulling my 21' boat to go fishing. I want to keep my stock converter. Got a hell of a built tranny. I want a cam that would be best for what I do and I defiantly want it to lope!!! Any suggestions on which one would be best for me... Thanks in advance.

If you want to keep the stock stall the cam need to stay small with less valve overlap, which means less lope.
This is the largest I'd go with a stock stall, 216/220 112lsa+4.
Cam Motion #C33-664, 216(.561")/220(.561") 112lsa +4.
Now if you're willing to go with a tow friendly higher stall TC then you can go a little bigger with more overlap.

I agree with him^ Im sure a LS6 cam can also meet your needs.

The streetsweeper TQ (220/224) has been proven to deliver great torque and will work with your stock stall.
