Default Which cam should i buy?!

I have a 2006 m6 gto, obviously it's a 6.0 ls2, my mods are Volant cai, pacesetter lt headers, and pully. I'm going with an ls3 top end. (ls3 intake, 60lbs injectors, and lightly ported square port heads, (might leave them stock don't know yet)) i'm sticking with stock 90mm throttle body.

now my question is, what specs on my cam should I go with?? I'm pretty sure somebody else is running a setup similar to this.

how much horsepower should I expect?? I'm hoping for 500rwhp.

I also have a tick master cylinder, full corsa exhaust, and i'm getting it tuned by G-Force motorSports in Pearland, Tx. (Houston, TX. lol)
