John,
Happy to Provide!!! I too was very wary and unsure when it comes to cam selection. So many choices, manufacturers, and more. Choose the wrong one, it's big work to change.
I made this chart by taking the last cam I had and worked well, and looking at many others in the same range, and built this spread sheet, listed each cam, averaged each column, and then chose one that was closest to the results, and erred on the conservative side.
Also agreed, this exact thread, asking for personal experience is the best way!!
(You could always buy a nice set of Edelbrock alum heads, paint them blue......)

When building my 331 for my FFR, I put this together. The cams here may be a bit on the healthier side. My motor is based on a 1970 302 block, SCAT crank kit, 10.6:1 compression, has the AFR 185 heads and the open plenum Intake, so it's a step up from a K-style build. My Horsepower is around 450.
Look at a roller cam, and use the hydraulic link-bar roller lifters.
Attached is a spreadsheet I made up when selecting my cam. I chose the Howards cam (in yellow), very happy with it, the car has a great idle, and kills inside the power band.

This is all crazy.
There is no infrastructure for ev 's, period.
experts, like these experts, all say that its minimum 20 years away for infrastructure, and that's maybe 30% of the US
What is chat gtp ?
A-I knows nothing more than Gretta feeds him, her or it.
The Classic Car market and their owners, is a larger worldwide group than Gretta or the new experts relates to.
Fossil fuels are here to stay.
Respectfully,
