I guess that's a yes
I'm not a torque converter expert at all, but I'd guess you would want your stall around 2500. That's one of those things I play around with for test and tunes.
OR..
you could call Coan or another like company, tell them your full setup, what it's for, and have them tell you.

cam
I put a JM 20-22 IN MY 73-350. 496 lift, 226at@50. In order to keep it running when I dropped it in gear it had to idle at 1150rpm. What a thump. I put in a B&M 2500 stall and I was able to turn down the idle to 850 in park.
With a 230@50 on your cam you might have problems with power brakes at an idle. tHEY MIGHT FEEL LIKE YOUR PUSHING ON A BRICK TO GET THE CAR STOPPED. You might need a vacuum canister for your brakes.

Taking into consideration, that "Streetable" is a highly subjective term, as it has been applied to everything from a "stocker" (with a K&N, MSD, and a pair of Flowmasters) to a full on "racecar" (with mufflers, current registration, and insurance).
That cam (with a matching advance curve) can be a good choice for street use.
AC is not a factor. Whether PB are, depends on how the engine is tuned and the conditions when they are used. See "streetable" above.
There are reserve systems (PDF download) for use in "marginal" applications.
Not subjective: Compression ratio depends on what fuel is to be used. 9.0:1 is usually suggested, as a starting point, for use with pump gas.
Converter stall speed is subjective: Depending on your intended use, your tires/suspension, and the rest of your powertrain, It might be anywhere between 2200 and 3500 RPM.
Compression ratio has no effect on the idle
and little, if any, effect on the function of power brakes.

Streetable Cam
Remember you can always advance or retard it to help give you what you want.
If you advance it 4-6 deg and it helps noticeably then you probably have the wrong cam for your application and wants, (too big).
If you retard it and it has the same effect then you could've probably gone a bit bigger.
