if thats yur car in yur sig man, its a bad *** looking car.. i think the torquer v3 will perform better than the torquer v2. but i dont think the gains will be that much and worth the swap. if i were to go bigger than the cam u have right now it would be for something bigger like the vindicator or MS4 or something that size.

The MS4 camshaft will make something like 10-12hp over the T2 camshaft. The Torquer 3 makes 4hp over the Torquer 2.
The MS4 camshaft is smaller & makes torque peak several hundred rpm before the Vindicator on the engine dyno. With the MS4 you get a camshaft with less duration, better clearance, better peak hp & a torque peak several hundred rpm before the Vindicator.
The MS4 can be run with a 3600 stall, but you have to decide if a cam swap & all the cost is worth the 10hp!!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL T/A!! I had tremendous success with my 347 with the Comp Cams-.595"-.598", 232*-234*@.050", 112LS. I can get the part # for you. I don't know your compression and other incidentals. This cam likes 10.5 + and loved the NX. Instant snap, 28mpg, loves your converter, 7.6@93mph (NA), with a 4100+lb convertible, and killer sound. I was going to go bigger when I spun a bearing, but Carry @ ET Perf. convinced me that this cam would shine in the 382". He was absolutely right on. I have over 18,000 miles with no problems.
Jason, please take no offence. I'm just relating to answer his question. Your stuff rocks.

And the ms4 can be ran with a tci 3500-3800 stall converter in a DD?

I believe the MS4 can be run with your converter. I don't know the specs of the V-2 cam. I had mentioned it 'cause it worked great for a DD. I really looked at that MS4 and MS3, but at the time with my "old school thinking", I thought it was a bit much as it was not well proven. I've used Crower and Comp Cams for 30 years and had a good repore with them. You can say I was a little "gun shy" at the time. Now with all of their success, I would highly recommend the MS4. I put 15-20,000 miles a year on my car. A real radical cam can wear out springs and parts prematurely, and I don't know how many miles you put on your ride. I also change my valve springs every season to keep the original performance. If this economy would ever get into gear, I would like to try a 383-40? with about 11.0-12.0-1 comp with some good heads with the MS4. I think it would make a great shop project! Good Luck and send some feedback.
PS, see if you spun #6.
