Bar some freak of engine nature, I would say you could install it and forget about it.

5.0L Mustangs have 100000, 125000, 150000 miles on factory roller cams.

If the block is prepared properly and the springs match the cam, I don't see any downsides whatsoever.

IMO, a hydraulic roller is THE best cam choice if your application doesn't require a really high powerband/peak.
