    The old Racer Brown SSH-25 cam would be a nice fit in your 426. Use a Street hemi valve spring (TRW# VS 911), steel retainers with some moly pushrods and 6-Pac or MP HD rocker arms. It's an oldie but it has some quick ramps and will make more than enough power. Beware of the beehives especially with a heavy valvetrain. Stock HP springs are only good for about .470 lift. Most cams bigger than the MP.509 will have have clearance problems, especially if the block or heads are milled. The cam you mentioned will not clear without notches. Mike

  stock valve train?  what kind of valve springs?  most stock valve
  springs are only good to something like .470 lift...  some of the
  commonly used stock replacement valve springs are only good to 
  .495 lift or so..  

  what is the car?  an automatic? if so what kind of converter have you
  got?  what kind of rear gears do you have?  what kind of compression
  are you going to build with....    

  and what do you expect out of a 'smooth-driving street car'   do you expect
  to take long trips on the highway,  cruise,  idle in 20 deg. weather? drive
  dialy 1-2 a week?
