The manufacturers are pretty good about identifying computer compatable cams, the distributors not so much. Are you needing a cam for the SD or mass air system? Mass air will handle just about any cam you want to use, though cams with LSA below 110 degrees will run rough. For SD in general you need 114deg LSA minimum and less than 216deg intake duration at 50 thousands, but some really short duration RV cams with 112LSA will also work.

Here is the cam I'm looking at for my 460

Crane Cams 353904 - Crane Truck Power Cam and Lifter Kits - summitracing.com

It's pretty small, but I don't want to take any chances with EFI compatibility. I spoke with a tech at Crane and was told that this is an EFI cam, but it isn't listed that way. Probably to give Crane an out if the cam gets into a fight with someones EFI system.. The tech said that this is a great low and midrange cam, lots of torque.

I totally missed the big red 351W in your sig, sorry about that. Maybe look at this cam

Crane Cams 443901 - Crane PowerMax Camshafts - summitracing.com

or something similar. Calling the tech lines and talking to them is where I got really good info. Just remember that every tech is gonna tell you that his stuff if the best, so be ready to sort thru the sales pitches..
