i always clay the piston on any cam .
if running stock heads you should be ok but better safe than sorry you drop a valve or kiss one at the track . that is why i always clay . never know if someone shaved a head or decked a block unless you have owned it since brand new .

the 3.15 gear is a bit small as it will take a minute to get in the powerband of the ms3 .

the stall wil help but you will have a high mph across the 1/4 . going with a high three or low 4 gear selection .
