Do you mind telling me WHICH Comp Cam grind you went with? I just have a little 283 with 350TH tranny but an Edelbrock dual plane manifold, Pertronix ignition, headers etc. and it doesn't provide enough vacuum to run a vacuum booster for power brakes but I see your does, presumably.

Here is a link to the cam in my truck on youtube.

I have 15 inches of vacuum but you do have a smaller engine. My brakes work great and it idles in gear with a stock convertor. It also works fine with stock valve springs because of the lift. But if you don't like the idle you can go smaller. I run the High Energy 268H Hydraulic Flat Tappet Camshaft Only
Lift: .454''
Duration: 268°
RPM Range: 1500-5500
Jegs 12-210-2
The smaller cam is the 260 degree 440 lift but pretty well idles smooth.
