What are you looking to get out of the cam? I would imagine you'll pickup some low-end and mid-range punch, but nothing up top. The narrow LSA (relative to stock) just doesn't do much for upper rpm performance at those durations.
hydraulic roller application best overall cam for towing . trucks vansr.v. etc. broad torque band. good vacuum . 3.55-4:10 axle ratio. 9.5:1 compr. computer compatible smooth idle. rpm range 1200-5000 valve lift int. ex .495 .5
The cam you've asked about sounds fine for a truck, but doesn't seem quite in step with the rest of the mods you've done to your car. There should be no need for 3.55 - 4.10 gears with that cam, unless you are running a 32" tall truck tire.

Look at this graph of the TR "Old Man Cam". It uses roughly 10* more duration across the board for about 30rwhp and 20rwhp gains (they did add the pulley with the cam swap).
