Default Need Help. Cam almost decided.

I have been going back and forth through cams for a month now. I was decided on MS3 but then I hear I can get better torque and more throughout the band with higher lift #s. LSKLobes..

Patrick G recommended me a High Lift version of the T-Rex 239/247 .649/656 109LSA+1

I feel that cam would make crazy power but might be too much for me.
Car is a street car but not a DD. I want something aggressive.
Baisically I want MS3 type power but more tqe and more throughout the band.

I want something in between the high lift T-Rex and Patrick's current cam setup. So I would say AGGRESSIVE street nitrous car. 2003 ZO6 with stock LS6 heads. Would upgrade to AFR's or ETP's in future (1-2 years if motor lasts).

I would choose the ms3 but maybe if I go a little smaller with higher lift #s it would work well.

I would use TSP's PRC valvetrain kit.
Thank you guys!!
Hopefully this thread will finally have me decided.

Just get the ms3, I've got the one TSP sells below it and I love the power.

ms3 seems soft on midrange torque. just go with a lower duration of the cam you picked for more streetability. around a 228/232 or 232/236.
