Default best cam for edelbrock head 5.0?

ive gotta 93 lx,pretty much completely built,i have found out that the motor is a 347,but i cant confirm this...ill confirm what i can visually prove

edelbrock upper and lower intake,pro m mass air meter,blue top 24#? injectors,underdrive pulleys,bbk ceramic headers and x pipe,edelbrock aluminum 5.0/5.8 heads,heads are attached with arp headstuds. i was alos told the heads/block were oringed for boost/spray,tko 600 5spd with CF DF clutch,8.8 with moser axles and ta cover,sfc's

car also has full msd 6al ignition,msd timing control,msd boost retard,and FULL NOS support gear{window switch,fuel saftey switch,etc etc}

i just put fms 9mm wires and NGK plugs in.

the car feels strong,but doesnt seem to pull as hard as it should ,the car seems to have a stock cam, any idea on suggestions?

max lift on the 5.0 edelbrock heads?
