Default cams and vacuum

Can anyone out there educate me on what a cam has to do with manifold vacuum? I am installing an assembled 428 with a cam that has an intake of 275 lift x .515 duration and an exaust of 285 lift x .541 duration. I understand I will have to install a vacuum storage canister because I have an automatic trans and power brakes.
Question #1 Is this too much cam for a street engine?
Question #2 Do I need a storage canister and why?
HELP
