Default MS3 cam on a 409 LQ9? help!

hello Im finishing to build my engine this week but lately Im getiing this felling I may have made a mistake ... a few months I bought a MS3 camshaft with 112 LSA, now Im planning to put it in a engine Im building...

409 iron block fully rebuild with lS9 heads and LS3 intake (soon to be replased with an LSA suppercharger...) do you think Im fine here or should I get another cam... first off.

The car is a 2001 camaro with a 4l80, Im really dont know what to do because I like to drive my car almost daily and I dont like those super choppy idles I seen on videos, I like to feel the engine smood on idle ... but a friend toldme bigger the engine awith a 112 LSA and a good exhaust, the choppy idle could be minimized, is this true?

sadyl all my valveltrain was already bought to fit an MS3 type of cam...

Im so lost here... and I dont know what to do, should I keep my MS3 or should I get another cam?

and reading on this internet make my head more confused, so many people with so many diferent opinions, so I had to make this thread...

please some help here!

Get a Positive Displacement blower cam from Brian Tooley. This one would be great:

Even though it's a 408 it's still going to be a choppy and rough sounding cam. Like Jake said get a blower cam
