340 Cam Kits which ones work with a stock block

The 284/484 will definitely give you a choppy idle. It should be in the 240-242 range at .050. If you do buy that cam , DO NOT get one other than the 108 LSA model. In a stock 340, grab a degree wheel and install it at 100-102 ICL.

Put plenty of initial timing on it and it will be decent down low.

If you don't already have the cam, look for something other than a MP grind. There are plenty of similar grinds from other companies out there.

CB, not to split a hair with but isn’t that @.050 a bit low for that cam? iirc, (LOL) isn’t that closer
To the 280/480?, I thought (lol again) the 284 was about a 244@050, otherwise, I so agree.

Couldn't he run the stock 340 HiPo spring (if tested ok) and rockers with that cam, correct??

Yes but there old. If they were replacement springs, as in OE
I’d say yes.

A much more favorable cam that I’d rather install. LCA exempt.... but would work as mentioned and asked about by the oe poster. I have a similar @050 cam in a hydraulic roller in the wife’s 360. Very nice.
