We would probably need to know what the car is being used for before recommending such a large cam.

it would work well with a 3k stall if you plan on hitting it with a 250 shot off the line.

lol that would be fun.

back to the op, the 3k stall is WAY to small... i would go with atleast 4k and your gears are a little small for this cam too. i would look into another cam myself. dont forget that you will need pushrods, retainers, springs and all that other good stuff. what are the goals for the car?

4K Stall
Dual Springs .650 Lift
Gears.
Flycut pistons if you really wanna be "safe".

To use that camshaft to its fulliest potential, you would need a 4000+ stall and a minimum of a 3.73 gear. A 4.10 would actually work better though.
