Ran one years ago in my street racer....idled fine with just a hint of lifter noise....(solid lifter version)
I've been recommending the SVO A311 lately but this cam would work fine too....
Both these cams are similar (not the same as) to the HP 289 cam...
I'll check back in my old muscle parts catalog and see if they have the stock specs....likely around .380 lift and a bit under 200 degrees @.050"
With your rear gear and any performance cam, I'd recommend an 11", 2200rpm stall converter...it'll help the driveability a bunch...I ran a slightly looser B&M in my street racer with 3.50's and ran 14.60's....ran 14.00's with 4.62's...corked up on street tires...
Not bad for a mild engine....
