Idle would become quite lumpy, and idle vacuum would drop to 10-12 inches - whether that's enough for A/C I can't say, but it's usually considered not enough for power brakes without a cannister or vacuum pump. Which, come to think of it, suggests that you should be able to plumb in a cannister and/or pump into the A/C vacuum supply as well to compensate for poor idle.
The HP estimates I gave you above might be a bit conservative, depending on how extensive the port job is on those Track 1s.

PTADDICT:
Thanks again for your time.
The brakes will be supplemented with a Hydra-Boost unit. I am looking at a bit more cam, but I wanted to contact the people here for some thoughts before a final decision is made.
I'm hoping several others will chime in so further ideas or experience can be considered.
Thanks,
Ty
