Have you considered running the L-46 camshaft out of the Corvette?

I own a L-79 in my 67 Vette and love the engine but given you have a 350 it may be worth reading. JMO. </div></div>

Yes! The cam I decided to go with is a hybrid cam made by Comp Cams that is called the L-79 &quot;Nostalgia Plus&quot;. According to Comp Cams this cam is the generic replacement for both the L-79 and the L-46.

Replicating the L-46 is a more accurate target when describing the build for the Z-11 rebuild, so you are exactly right. I made reference to the l-79 cam as that is what it is commonly called as the L-46 is a lesser known engine in general circles.
