My experience (I think the 60' numbers are right but I'm not 100% sure):
5.3, Radix @ 9 psi, 4L60E, 210/218 116lsa cam = 13.57 @ 99, 1.85 60'
6.0, Radix @ 9 psi, 4L80E, 216/224 115lsa cam = 13.64 @ 104, 2.04 60'

when you 60' well your mph drops slightly and so does ET.
but in your point you show two non stock cams but the heads make a difference
