Default This cam recomended by comp cams, any ever use this?

I talked to comp cams today for a cam recomendation, this is what they came up with
Xtreme Energy™, XE270HR
RPM-Range 1800 to 5800
Valve Timing 0.006
Lobe-Center Angle: 114
Intake Centerline 110


intake exhaust
Duration: 270 276
Duration @ .050" Lift 218 224
Valve Lift 0.512 0.512
Lobe Lift: 0.321 0.321

I will be installing GT40 iron heads with 1.6 roller rockers, cobra upper and lower, and larger injectors and mass air. Does this sound like a good cam for my car?? Has anyone ever used this one with in their car?

Thanks for the input, there are too many cams to choose from out there. It is hard to pick the right one. Not going with a custom grind, just looking for a good street performing cam.
