Why does that cam look familiar? I can't seem to place my finger on it. It will come to me eventually.
It will probably be borderline. The fact that it's an EFI grind will help. Brakes themselves only need like 11-12" vacuum to operate. At those rates, you will need to be careful, but they should work. Plug in a vacuum gauge and take a reading if you are concerned. A vacuum resevoir is a small price to pay for the added brake functionality if that's what it boils down to.
