Default Cam Opinion

This is my first post so be easy on me. I was referred to this site for my question. I have a set of good flowing heads, all bolt ons and a 12 bolt w/ 4:10's.
I'm putting in a 228/228 590/590 112 lsa.
What do you guys think of this cam? I wanted something that sounded good but was still good for the street. Anyone have something close and offer some advice?

TTT cause I'm thinking of getting the same thing. Someone help me too. I'm no cam master and have little knowledge on the subject. What will the idle be like with something like that? Aggressive or mild?

My best so far is a 12.4 on Street tires. I have an LSX 78mm intake, CAI, LTH and ORY, Loudmouth, LS1 Edit, GTP heads and this cam... Anyone got any idea what I will run?
