Default cam opinions/recommendations for lq4 w 243s

folks please try to limit responses to proven combos with either track or dyno numbers. now if some kind of expert, please chime in. i got my own ideas but want to compare with proven opinions and recommendations. more info on motor and mods planned:

lq4 with mild ported unmilled 243s, approx 10.2 to 1 compression;
tbss intake with fast 90;
march u/d pulley;
pacesetter long tubes;
airaid intake;

built 4l65e;
3400 stall;
3.73 g80;

rcsb, not track queen nor daily driver....just my personal weekend warrior/cruiser so i suppose closer to track....best i can describe....

thanx and i hope this benefits others with similar builds or plans.....

Is this going to be a track queen or a DD?
