LG Motorsports re used my cam from my old 346 in my new forged 402. Worked great !! No need to run out and spend money on a new cam, if the one you have works for your new application. My case: it was a big cam for the 346, and now that its in the 402 it made tons of hp/tq (see sig) but has manners. Good luck.................
