Those springs will be fine. The V3 is an evolution of the V2, and the V3 is supposed to make more low and mid range power. There is no reason you shouldn't step up to the V3. I bought it and will have dyno results on the 26th from TSP. Fratsit has this cam and is VERY pleased with it and will also have dyno numbers by the end of the month (hopefully).

will a 111 lsa be cool for a 150 shot? or would a 112 be a better choice?

I am going to go with the 111 for more power under the curve off the spray as I dont see myself spraying that often.

Numbers for me are coming. I am only waiting on EFIlive Flashscan V2 to hit the streets. Hopefully this week.
I am really interested to see what this cam will make on its own, and then compare it with those that have heads.
Stupid me....I went out and inked a contract on a house so my mod money is "nill" until the house it built and we close.
My last little bit is going towards the tune and EFIlive. R/
