I am happy with my tr224 112 lsa on my basically stock motor and drivetrain. It works good as a daily driver, not to radical. I'm not sure though if it is the best cam to use for nitrous. Keep asking around for that one.
Since your heads are done I'd go big - perhaps TSP 231/237. That cam loves nitrous too. I'd check the clearance first since your heads are milled. It shouldn't be a problem though. Go with MLS gaskets though.

Is this for the truck?I f it is I would be a little conservative,if its for a car then the TSP 231\237 would work good with the n.o.,its got more exhaust duration and a nice lobe separation, both good for n.o.!! 
Marc,
I dont know how p/v will be with a 6.0l setup. That will definately be the key to picking a camshaft. Do you have the 6.0l pistons with the big dish?

i have practically the same setup as this guy, except my 5.3 heads are milled .015 and my exhaust valves are only 1.55's.
I as well want the biggest cam i can fit and still be able to use the juice (150shot). I have a TR224 but i want more lift!
So best bet is basically call around for a custom dealy? Any other suggestions?
thanks.
