That cam is very small for a stock 346, let alone a stroker motor.

I'd say a 230+ cam would be minimal in a stroker. You could undercam it to death, but why? What kind of heads do you have? Valve size? The benefits of a stroker are more torque, more cubes, more strength and more potential.

Re: stroker benefits?
well depending on your heads you should be fine...least for a reasonable amount of power. if they are stage 1s or mild 2s...don't expect 500hp.
i've known guys running 236/242 cams with .600" lift saying they are to tame in a 383.
depends on your ideas of streetable.
you could always go with a smaller stroker. i think on the LS1 if you don't bore the cylinders out you end up with something like 377. you'll have the torque of the longer stroke, little more displacement, better internals (depending on what you buy) but won't have to machine the block much.
