I agree lighter is better and if the heads where bare I would have stuck LS3 valves in it.

From this thread: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...ake-valve.html

103g is less that what most stockers weigh. Another good post:

Default Camshaft...

You owe it to your self to get a cam spec for your own particular purpose, and app, and for only $25. is the best deal in the performance world today. camhelp@Guerragroup.com is where to go, if you want to get max power and not over cam your car for the st ask for shifting point at 6,600 and red line at 7k great for a dd.

Your cam specs are in the ballpark. 223/232 is a good split. I'm not sure what lobes you are using, but I would keep the intake <.600 lift for a DD. Somewhere around .590 would be easier on the valvetrain. I have a 233/239, love it, but it is not a DD. My freind has a 228/234, it's borderline streetable. 223 should work great.
