Default Blower Cam selection.

So, currently i have a SLP tvs2300 stuck on top of a 5.3 in my s10. went 11.46 with in three passes off the trailer. The cam in that 5.3 is a tick polluter as i never expected to stick a blower on that thing. I'll cut to the chase. I picked up a gen 4 6.0 to stick in its place since someone offered me a bunch of money for that 5.3. I've called around and got a couple spec's and quotes for cam kits and they seem to be all over the place. I'd like your guys help. Im not super concerned with driveabilty, as its more of a track toy than anything.
The truck is set up as follows

85 s10
Gen 4 6.0 w/ stock 317's
10% over balancer and a 3.0 pulley on a tvs2300. Makes around 13 psi on the 5.3 currently
4l80e trans with a PTC converter that will be restalled. Currently blowing through it and flashing around 4200
3.73 rear gear
26" tall hoosier slick.
Whole mess weighs around 3320 with me in it.

So far ive recieved specs from the following.
TSP went with a custom cam
228/234 .629/.616 114+3

Tick went with their Blower stage 2
231/247 .630/.630 116+5

BTR went with their PDS stage 4
235/252 .629"/.600" 119+5

Most of this is greek to me, so all of your help is very much appreciated.
