Those heads will get lots of flow, but at low RPMs. Even with a 901 cam, the valve timing will be setup for more flow at higher RPMs.
I don't know guys, but wouldn't he want to advance that cam quite a bit?
And then, after that, it'll be a real torque monster.
But as it is, it can't be any worse, and will certainly be better than, before the rebuild!

That cam really isn't that big at all. It should compliment the FT heads well. I'd install it straight up. I know in my dyno simulations, the peak torque with the 901 comes on at about 2500rpm. That, and the torque curve is as flat as a pancake. I think it'll work great in that FT, or I wouldn't have recommended it.
