Default Cam Recommendation for this 6.0

Been workin on a 6.0 and am looking for some cam input...Truck is RCSB with a LPP headers, TB stall, 4.10s, and other bolt ons etc...Specs on the 6.0 are... LQ4 cleaned up with new bearings and rings. Traded the 317's to a fellow F-body for some 243's to bump Cr. Stock intake and T-body for now. Truck is a Daily driver and i dont want to spin it past about 6500.. I have a Comp 212/218 low lift and i know it would be torquey as hell...but i was thinkin maybe a tad larger maybe a TR224? or a 216/224ish cam?

I have the 212-218 low lift in my 6.0L. Haven't been able to drive it much until I get it tuned but it idles like stock, I was hoping to hear it a little. I think the trucker cam would be good in a 6.0L

228R is a proven cam in the 6.0.

Thanks guys, ill look into the 228R for sure....i even considered a another Futral cam, but i have heard very little about his cams over here on PT. I know my F11 runs great in my F-body, but maybe all his cams are larger and directed toward cars not our trucks...
