With an LS1's 346 cubic inches an intake duration of ~227 degrees is roughly the max before the torque curve starts shifting to the right. Given with today's quality tuning software a ~227 size cam will drive "nice" in an LS1 I wouldn't go less than ~226 on the intake duration.

EPS's 226/234 ~.60x/.60x lift 113 seems in the ball park. The cam make ~470+ whp in a M6 with a 90/92mm Fast and TF215 heads.

TSP's 228/232 .600/.600 on a 112 would be on my list from the TSP shelf cams. The 228/232 camshaft is a very popular camshaft for customers wanting a very streetable camshaft that makes approximately 5-7 more horsepower than the 228R camshaft. Dyno testing has shown the 228/232 camshaft to make a solid 50-55 RWHP gains with all other supporting bolt-on modifications in place. The 228/232 camshaft is large enough that we recommend a minimum 2,800 RPM stall converter in automatic cars. Tuning will also be required in both automatic & manual applications.

Since you have 799's and like TSP, their ported version should work well.
