Default L78 motor cam opinion's

Ok guy's looking for some input. I am going to build my 68 L78 motor this winter. I bought a complete stock short block assembly. I was told buy the guy I bought the motor from that it has this cam in it!

Crane energy part number is 11-678-5
lift 590 intake 598 exhaust
advance duration 282 intake 290 exhaust
110 lobe seperation
16 thousands valve setting
2400-6800 power band

Do you think it is to much or is this more of a race cam than a street cam. He ran 50 thousands head gaskets to lower the compression. He said he had no problem with motor running on high octane pump gas.
I could order the stock cam but I was told buy a couple of people they went with a bigger cam and it helped the performance. Just looking for some input from others.

Thanks
