Yea it will, keep the idle around 700-800 and it will lope pretty hard.

Not like a pro stocker,but it should have a noticable idle,yes.

The idle will be nice, but not aggressively lopey. Youd want a lower LSA for that

That cam would hit harder on on a 110 or 110+1....but it would make it alot harder to tune and get the idle quality right probably.

Actually it will cam harder than a 110 lsa, this cam will sound like a 234-238 @.050 duration cam with a 110 lsa, i is gonna be on the aggressive side.

No, it depends.

Most of the time, a lower LSA will give you a choppier idle, BUT if you pick a cam that is weak, well then of course it will not lope at idle, but bottomline is that if you picked two cams that were near identical in spec, minus the fact that one cam was LSA 114 and another was LSA 110, the 110 will be the more aggressive of the two at idle.

It's not like hes gonna pick an aggressive 114 and a weak 110 and compare them to buy, they will be roughly the same duration and lift range.

you asked for opinions, and everyones idea of what "lopey" is a lil different...

I run cc306, 230"s240's and it is just lopey enough to idle at 800 on HSR

I have a 230/236 112 LSA in a Minirammed 385 and it lopes in a most muscular way with 12 inches of vacuum at 900 RPM. Your cam choice will also have a bit of lope to it and it certainly wont sound like a stocker. You should be able to idle in the 700 RPM range. With headers you will probably hear that super-cool metallic ticking sound of exhaust gases shooting into the primary tubes. Man, that sound jazzes me. The cam choice you speak of sounds like the right combo for a HSR.
