Default opinons on my set up

How would an MS3, 3600 stall and 3:23's work together?
Driveability wise how would it be. Lots of surging and bucking down low or would it be ok. Would it have zero low end? I will (within the next year) get some 3:90's or possibly 3:73's. Lemme know what ya think, Anyone run anything similar to this?

+1 on are you sure you want to run the MS3. First off what is the car used for mostly. Track/weekend car. Daily Driver, highway fun?

I think it'll will be fine as long as your tune is good. My car was alright running the T-rex with stock gears.
I was looking for Max effort/ track use mostly though

If you all ready got it you didn't make a bad choice.but it depends what your looking for. And whoever said there low end wasn't that bad with a trex and stock gears is full of it,or its your first ride in a car with a cam.my ms4 was a dog down low on stock m6 gears.big cams are not a budget way of doing it.and requires alot more to get them to where they should be at.honest in a street car you want more low n mid range.but that cam is proven,i will say have your tuner do some street tuning on it after the dyno.i feel the big cams need some street time ,it helped alot on mine .

Sorry t Rex cam Guy i see you said it was ok. From my experience big cams on stock gears is sluggish on the low end.i have been in a few really well setup cars and i can tell you smaller set ups will blow apart a car with just a big cam.big cammed cars need alot to be a beast. Everything from a fast intake,1 7/8 headers,chris1313,duals,correct gearing and tire size etc. A smart man once told me Max effort cams need Max effort parts to run right (lemons)
