Well a stock cube 346 cannot match the torque of a BBC. But top end HP on 5.7-6.2 LSX can equal milder BBC's. If you want torque then I would really go for the largest cube motor, maybe a cam with a broader torque range. My setup lacks low end but can easily spin the 335's at will. It's a little more peaky but on the upper RPM it's moves pretty good.
