The rest of the 50 mile trip was tense in Bay Area traffic.  Got home and found the wire from the vacuum pump pressure switch had snapped off so the power brake booster was not working at all.  Surprising about of force is needed to stop the car in that condition. :)  Since the cam only produces about 4 inches of vacuum at idle, a vacuum pump is mandatory.  The 4 inches makes setting idle impossible.  After Silver State it's time to pull this cam and put something a little more drivable (like a Hall HP6) back it.
