Correct based on that aspect. However Larger cams(depending on the amount of positive overlap) often require more idle rpm and they tend push on the brakes with a stock converter. A higher stall is normally looser so it requires more rpm to get moving and will soak up that increased idle rpm. This will keep the engine from trying to push through the brakes. Not saying the cam being discussed will need a converter, just mentioning it because others are asking likely in reference to this.
