DaytonaTurbo hit the nail on the head. It's going to be a dog with that cam. You are better off leaving the stock cam in it. If you want a little more oomph, I would put a cam that is just slightly larger than stock. I had a '76 440 in my '68 Super Bee, with stock heads and pistons. I installed a Crane Econopower cam in it. (now called Powermax) 427/454" lift, 260/272 duration, 204/216 @ .050. It woke that engine up, it would just fry the tires, and gobs of torque. Nice idle too. Here is the equivalent cam on ebay, at a cheaper price than the Crane...

I hope this helps.
that or the small summit cam/lifter set for $109. I think it's like 214/224 445/455???
