I would go with this one without knowing what the head flows
650 651 296 303 263 270.... of the choices you show
but its similar to what I run in my W2 back up
engine ( I had a little more lift and a couple degrees
more duration in a 395ci), I went 9.56 in my car JMO

Racer Brown STX-22. .590 w1.5 RAR/ .629w1.6 RAR 276deg at .050. I have made 650+hp with that cam and ported junkyard heads on a 418sbm. Inexpensive, reliable horsepower, for the cost of a set of rollercam springs you can buy cam/lifters and springs.

I like this one Mitch

With your 1.5 rockers the bigger would be better
