Default 6.0 with 799 heads. cam recomendations

just picked up complete block an heads for $250 today. completely rebuilding the bottom end back to stock. using clevite bearings an silva-lite rings.

planning to p&p the heads an mill them down .030 an still run the stock hed gaskets. wat would be my best bet for a cam setup? im looking to have a great lope with the most power i can get. i dont want to have something to radicle since its my daily driver. im not scared of the power by any means i just like my mpg an reliabilaty lol.

Too much mill if flat top pistons. In any case I would flycut to fit a decent size cam.

have the heads flowed after porting .call TSP and ask them what cam works best for your combo.like stated above ,don't mill the heads too much.I feel the rotating should be balanced if you fly cut the pistons.
