    no i do not think your cam is ideal for your application ?? but you did not say what you have this 496 in. car /whats the weigth and how much stall or stick ? .what type intake what is the make ? . how big of carb ? what size headers . in short heads may be fine for alower rpm and the cam not so much .need more input on your build .what ET are your trying to get to??? 282/292 @ 050 ? with 700 less lash. weres the head flow at 700 ? so your going to put the cam in at 104 intake center line ? that could help some pull the cam coming in at a lower rpm should help out of the hole not sure if i would cut up a set of heads if the cams wrong in the first place. you may find the cam was moved for lack of piston to valve room if this cam is this big @ 050 you have no PV move the cam check intake valve you may find out why it was moved
