Default Blower cam difference for L92/L76?

How do cam specs differ when going from LS1 heads to L92 heads and L76 intake?

The intake to exhaust ratio is biased differently on l92 heads. This will affect cam specs. The l92's heavily favor intake flow out of the box.

I should think other heads would be a better choice for FI, for just that reason. Ported LS6 heads kill L92s on the exhaust side, to say nothing of AFRs.

I also have a set of stage 2 ported LS1 A&A/WCCR heads.

Comparing the two at .600" lift:

Exhaust
Stage 2 LS1 3.905" bore . . . 222.6
Stock LS3 4.030" bore . . . . 214.6 ... -8cfm

Intake
Stage 2 LS1 3.905" bore . . . 291.8
Stock LS3 4.030" bore . . . . 328.7 ... +36.9

FWIW -The port surfaces of the LS3 heads are like 80 grit. I've smoothed the exhaust port surfaces with sanding rolls on a die grinder, but haven't touched the intake ports and I haven't changed the shape of the exhaust ports.
