Which cam
1st-fti streetsweeper ht-228/232 111
2nd-fti hellraiser-229/236 111
3rd pred z el-toro 230/230 111
4th-eps 230/234 111
EPS lobes will be easier on the valvetrain and still make power.
Why not talk to Geoff @ EPS or Ed Curtis and get a custom spec?
I even have some of those in stock that are on sale for $329.99!

For a slightly smaller /milder cam look at the Tick Street Heat Stage 2 (ls1 version).

Now, for the cams ONLY on your list, I'd go with #2nd-FTI Hellraiser-229/236 111, mainly because of the wider split.

The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
This is my sheet with AFR 205's (59cc) stock GM MLS gasket, Unported FAST 92/92, and an SLP lid. Stock 145k mile shortblock...

I was actually spec'd that cam as a cam only, and wound up piecing everything else together before it became install time. Ed said not to worry though, as more air in = more air out.
I did his combination for him. He has a 2900lb. fox body with the simplest combo I feel I've ever done.
Stock bottom end LQ4
Stock 799 heads (10.3:1 compression)
Victor Junior
800 Carb
231/240 .617/.588 110lsa camshaft
Power glide with 5000 stall
4.56 gears
This car runs consistent 6.40's@106 with 1.4x 60's
It's been 5.90@115 with a 150 shot and a 1.32 60'.
You have a light car. You have compression and a big stall. There is no reason not to run a bigger cam.
I ran 239/247 110lsa cam in my stock bottom end 3000lb. F-body with the same 5C stall. It was loosened up to 5800rpm. With a 4.11 rear gear I was able to get it to go 6.38@105 CAM ONLY.
Stock 241 heads just like they came from GM. Fast 92 with a 92mm NW TB. 1x7/8" ARH headers. Extremely simple combo with way less compression than you have. I was using heads that are no where near the level of your heads either.
Just something to think about. I have personal experience with a light weight car, the exact same stall converter you're running and a much larger cam than you're contemplating. It's no coincidence at all as to why the combo I personally owned runs the times you're looking to run with a stock bottom end CAM ONLY.
At one point in time I was going to put CNC ported heads on my car, fly-cut the pistons and make a run for 5.90's but I put nitrous on it instead. I know it would have done it. I just needed more horsepower.
My times were also done off the foot brake. Here is bottom 6.40 pass:
