I think that would be a lovely cam, for a NA 346.

That cam will work great in your setup

THE same cam I would choose right now if I were doing a build. Arun at Canadian Performance has been experimenting with some cams that WERE typically considered NA only cams & has found that some of them work exceptionally well. The cam specs you list even mirror the typical "blower cam" but are just more aggressive

That would work very well, I know a few people running cams around that size with 402+ci and blowers and making some really good power.

Smaller cam for that Cube motor will be great and make some great numbers!

Go with it

Thanks,Matt

I would go a tad bigger Mike but that cam will work great. It's a bit small for a 408 but will still work well-just make sure the CR is not in the dumps.
