Try shooting one of the sponsors a PM. They have several cams that big shoved into 346's so a 414 should be able to handle them with no problem. If you have no piston to valve interference issues then I would say any cam that fits should about do it. You did say you were looking at making as much N/A power as possible.

I would go right to ALAN FUTRAL tell him your goals and what you want out of your 414 and let him suggest and custom grind you a kick *** FMS custom cam for that bad boy LS1 414 motor!
