Cam Suggestion?

I'm looking into a cam, but as we all know there are so many choices out there. So i'm just looking for some suggestions. The car is a 98 SS, jet hot lt's and ory, borla catback, fast/NW 90/90, MAF, and an LS6 crate motor. I'm looking for a cam around .600 lift. Any help would be much appreciated.

Many many options out there... so you can get pretty meticulous on your demands.

Stick or auto? Converter? Gears? Daily driver, weekend toy, track only car?

It's an M6, weekend toy/track car, 3.73's (4.10's soon), and i don't mind an aggressive ride. I don't think i want something as aggressive as the trex, but something that will make a lot of power. I don't want to flycut the pistons (yet) and i'm thinking about having the heads ported/polished etc. when i do the cam. pushrods and springs will be done with the cam.

and i'm not looking just for top end power, i'd like a decent torque curve, with a good amount of low end torque.

tr224 is the best all around cam with an unbeatable tabletop torque curve. Loved mine. Going with a new setup how ever and my new cam is 234/240 6xx lift 112 lsa 108 icl. I'm also looking to rev a lot higher now.
