Default help with my cam choice for my engine build

Hello all I'm getting my engine rebuilt soon and have been doing research. I want to stay stock cubes and NA and have great streetable power that will hang up top as well.

The car is auto with a built 4l60 3500 stall racing clutches etc.
The rear is 323 buit will be upgraded when that eventually goes as well.

I want to get the PRC 5.3 heads because of price and performance and the stock cubes. After calling around TSP made me fell best about their choice and then I notice that TSP can custom grind cams. I want to go bigger than your regular 224 cam but I can't over cam this car (MS4 TRAK etc. etc.) because it will see regular street use. I was thinking something in the 230 range. I also see people combining the XER and XFI Lobes for power under the curve and having bigger cams and retaining driveability. Can you guys back all of this up and let me know if I am thinking right. Also I think I want a 112 LSA so it won't chop so rough. Thanks for your input.
