Default Cam and a/c

What is the biggest cam you can run with a/c. Either hydraulic flat tapit or hydraulic roller?

My Vintage air runs great with the cam in my sig (XE274H). I also have a Torker II and a Holley 750, TH400, and a 2800 stall. Admittedly my cam is on the small side tho. I'm also curious what others say, an upgrade to E heads and an old faithful cam from SD Perf is in my future I hope

An A/C idle kick up solenoid are used even on stock applications.

The question is somewhat relative to the engine. My 350 with a 219/227 HFT cam runs power brakes and a Classic Auto Air kit (Sanden compressor) just fine. I'm sure a bigger engine could take even more cam.
