Default Need Procharged ls1 cam/valvetrain recommendations

Looking to get some suggestions on a cam/spring/pushrods/lifters for my Procharged ls1 build. I have read through the stickys and understand the basics, at this point I'm looking to get some solid advice and product suggestions that I can purchase.

Current motor status:
-Ls1 bored .005 over
-Forged rods/pistons
-Approx 9.6-9.7 CR
-procharger d1sc
-CNC ported 243 heads:
Intake flow @ 28
.100 - 71.5
.200 - 146.2
.300 - 213.3
.400 - 255.0
.500 - 296.3
.600 - 312.0
Standard oem ls2 valve set
-Trunion upgraded ls1 rockers
-ls6 intake
-ported ls1 throttle body
-80lb injectors
- 1 7/8 LT headers

I am looking for a fairly aggressive (yet still fun to drive) cam and supporting springs/locks/retainers/pushrods/lifters that is/are capable of turning up to 6500-6800 RPM with a decent (not obnoxious) idle lope. The goal for the car is to make about 700ish rwhp through a m6 trans and strange 60 rear.

Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Brute speed blower cam is a good tried and true off the shelf cam. Tooley racing, Tick performance, or Cam motion would also be worth a call to get their recommendation on their blower cams. A good dual valve spring is always a good idea with FI, Tooley or Ferrea get my vote.
