Default Possible low 12s with 3200 TC or shoud go higher?

Im was thinking of getting a Midwest 3200 TC with a 2.0 STR...but after reading several posts, im thinking of going for a 3500+...this is my daily driver also...

and the low 12's with combination of LS6 Intake, LTs, and maybe a sleeper cam(Lingenfelter GT2+3 or LS6 Cam)...i just got a new job and my pay is better...so all these mods will be possble withing one year...

just trying to make a list of a good setup

Low 12s easy on a 3200 stall with a mild cam.
Even possible without a cam.

Are you going to do any reprogramming when the converter goes in? Usually if you go less than a 3500 stall, you can get away
with doing any. 3500 and up, programming will become neccessary.

Oh yeah, don't forget to get a tranny cooler too. Cheap insurance.
