Default Blower Cam Choice

I'm starting my winter project. 25 Eliminator Daytona. 509 cid,8.5 to 1CR, Edlebrock performer rpm #6155 aluminum heads, B&M 420 blower, 2 850 BG prepped holley blower carbs, CMI E tops.Planning on 5 to 6 lbs boost. Suggestions for cam requested. I want to turn it to 6000rpm . Note: I need a relatively smooth idle due to running a Black Hawk drive. It needs to be able to idle around 700 in gear or docking / trailer loading will be nuts. It already does near 9mph at idle with a 500efi in it.

OK motor gurus, whats the best cam choice for this combination and any guesses on HP and TQ #s?

I used desk top dyno for my cam choice. Worked out great.

Only thing I would do is run a different blower. 8/71 blower shop, littlefield, etc. More room to grow and buy a chiller.
