That's a pretty good sized cam, so yeah that's probably right.

yeah that about right for that cam...... that cam is going to carry low idle vacuum....... so being that regular atmospheric pressure is 105 kpa, and anything below that is vacuum, your setup sounds right because a smaller cam would read lets say 50 kpa or so, but your cam is large so therefore your idle kpa will be higher
