That cam will run fine, with the intake side being under 220 it should make power everywhere. What converter are you going with and in what vehicle?
You need to match it up with a good aftermarket converter as well. Might want to get gears later on too, depending on what you already have and if you have a heavy truck with heavy wheels/tires.

I would check piston-to-valve clearance with that cam and milled heads. Just as a precaution.

True that, only safe way is to measure.

Once tuned, it should run really well with a fairly broad powerband, and will also work well with your Circle-D 3200. Do you have anything else done to the heads? I wouldn't let that .6xx lift go to waste, and get a nice port and polish or CNC job. If you have the dough, you should give Richard at WCCH a call and discuss your options
