Default carb'd 6.0L + L92 heads what cam you all running?

Thinking of building up a 6.0L and L92 heads, wondering what cam you guys are running if you have a carb up top even better. Some ET and mph combos would be great as well

TSP 233/239 with a holley 750 hp. still playing with my timing curve and the carb, but pretty happy with the preformance.

.025 milled off the L92's with flat top mahle pistons.

trying to get a kinda max effort not for a daily driver. 4500-5000 stall if needed, 4.11 gear and 28" slicks. Not sure if I want to flycut at all but wouldn't be opposed to milling for more compression since it's a LQ4 motor

if the l92 heads are not milled, the scr will be less than 10:1 with lq4. around 9.5-9.6
might as well cut in some vr's while ur there.

any chance you could explain that process to me? This something I can do at home or should I find a local shop?
