Default 346/MN6 with MT1 R1 Cam

I had this cam in my '00 FRC for a few months. I made 351/314 after ECS tuned it. Lumpy idle, very driveable.

Mods were LS6 intake/Vararam/Dynamaxx headers/Corsa catback/ LS6 heads with minor clean up work. I did not need to flycut with my setup.

The only reason I changed the cam is because I went to a SLP 402.
