Just like the title said I am going to use ls3 heads and intake with a stock lq4 short block so im looking for input on cam selection. Also should I mill the heads or not. Im looking at milling them .020 or .030 to up the compression a little.

I have some vmore cubes than you (404 stroker) but fired mine up for the first time the other night andv idled almost perfect at 850 rpms(should idle lower after I'm done tuning). Trickflow 238/242 .595/.595 112 lsa cam.
Had this cam in my stock cube ls1 it loped pretty good and idled at 995 rpms.
I've been running an a4 with 3,800 stall and ported/040" milled 241 heads.
Pulls like crazy all the way to 7,000 rpms
