If you can choose a lens for 810 portraits, what would be your choice?
Ok, here is the condition, it must be compatible with modern shutter (including sinar DB shutter). I know that Heliar 360 is compatible with sinar DB shutter. (ok, I am not confident with packard shutters)

For a tight portrait, I'd have to say any modern 360 mm lens will do.

But I like shooting full length portraits, not just tight on the face, so prefer any modern 240 mm lens. I happen to use a Nikkor.

cooke portrait lenses.......with or with out a shutter capability......the 13 inch f5.6 will easily fit on a 6x6 (and a sinar )board
