Very similar to the cam I have in my '68 F250, also using a Holley 750, which seems to be a perfect carb size for it. Should be a pretty torquey set-up with just a little bit of a lope with that 109 LSA. Easy on the valvetrain too. Power will be done by 5000rpm, but it'll run to 5500 nicely. A good choice for a low maintenance street build in my opinion.
