Default cam for stock ls6 heads

i got a new set of ls6 heads for christmas and want to upgrade my cam to go with them.i want to mill them .005 and use a .045 gasket to bring my compression up a little.my current cam is 224/224 .581 .581 114+0.
i was wondering if i could get a bigger cam with some advance in it along with the extra compression and pick up hp and tq.the car will be a daily driver but i am more interested in ets. i would like to have them sent off and ported but i dont have the extra cash right now.
thanks

With all the bolt ons and a set of Dart 225cc cylinder heads it put down 434.27/416.38 on motor and 536.7/500.2 on a 100 shot. I attached the graphs below
