Hot Cam idle speed

What idle speed works well with the hot cam and ported heads?

I'm sure 900-1000 will do you fine...

Set mine while warm @ 925 in neutral and 750 in gear. No problems.

Thanks for all ya'll's replys. I had mine set at 850 and it seemed ok with a 2600 stall but I had considered lowering it to 750 that being 100 over stock.
Can anyone see any reason why 750 would be too low?
Would off idle throttle response suffer with a lower idle speed?
BTW I have a stock TB and injectors with a pcmforless tune.
Thanks.
