Default Largest cam for LS6 heads

What would be the biggest cam I can run with unmilled LS6 heads?

Tried searching, but most topics talk about milled heads.

Agreed, bigger isn't always better. I just need to make sure my current cam 239/244 .612/.612 will clear these heads.

My original question was in regards to the head clearance and you have already helped me greatly by providing the earlier info, however my LSA is 114. I need to look at the cam card for the ICL and get back to you.
