engine combo opinions please

I'm getting ready to pull the motor in my trans am. The thing leaks oil like nobody's business. I figured, since it's out, I'll add some performance goodies. I bought a set of holley aluminum heads, a converted lt1 intake, and will get new hypereutectic pistons. I would like your opinions on the cam that I just ordered. Here are the specs:
Duration @ .050 - 230/236
Adv Duration ~ 280
Lift - .596/.571
LSA - 114

I would like to run 11:1 compression. Will this cam bleed off enough cylinder pressure to run 11:1?

Thanks for your help!
