Though supposedly the 1958 is slightly different. Based off those numbers though, a cam shop can easily tweak it to your particular needs. Building your Fury to be a driver? Or more of a show car? I'd probably err on the side of mild, especially with modern fuels...

I would err on the side of wild. Old cam specs are notoriously lame. Couple it with decent new valve springs.
The '57 specs were "256° duration with .405 lift".
Go more for a 270 total duration with at least .45" lift and you will do yourself a big favor. Works fine with stock converters too. I know because I have a similar cam in my 331 hemi, only with .465" lift. Made a very impressive difference in power & fun over the stock specs.
