Default B20 cams or LS cams better in stock LS motor

Ok i keep getting mixed opinions on which cams are better to use in an LS motor.
I'm putting together a ls swap for my hatch. Basic set up, i/h/e, aftermarket intake
mani, B16 pistons to run a little higher compression, exedy clutch kit, ls tranny, but need to know which cams are better. Please help me out with this folks.

thx for the thread, pretty good stuff, still not sure though, looks like the B20 cams are not the way to go but maybe B18b cams

one of my friend did this type of setup using the b20 motor... he said his LS cams are more better top end... i believe the LS cams do give more top end then the b20 would. i say stick with LS cams.
