Default Best Setup for bored 408ci LQ9

I am building a 408ci bored LQ9 built for spray and I am wondering what would be the best setup for it. I am looking at the Patriot heads fully assembled, and doing FAST 102mm intake and 102mm TB with it. But I am not really sure what CAM would be good for that setup, and what the best forged internals would be. Any help and advice is well appreciated.

Thanks!

this is what you need, and i got it.

custom comp cams

649 - 649 lift

248 - 258 duration @.50

113-LSA

plus it's for sell or trade for ls6 intake LMK

baby cams are like a small *****, you always wish that you had more.
especially with nitrous.
