Default Tsp Ms3??? Or Ms4???

OK I NEED HELP WITH CHOOSING BETWEEN THE CAMS. I HAVE O2 WS6 TRANS AM WITH MODERATE BOLT ONS (PACESETTER LONG TUBES , OFR Y PIPE , CUTOUT , SLP MASS AIR METER , PORTED TB, LS6 INTAKE , MSD WIRES , WHISPER LID WITH KN FILTER). NOW IT IS TIME FOR ME TO GO GET A NASTY CAM TO START WITH. I WANT TO KEEP THE STOCK HEADS FOR NOW ,BUT MAYBE DOWN THE ROAD UPGRADE. THE CAR IS DRIVEN DAILY ABOUT 20 MILES A DAY. I WILL BE SHOOTING THE CAR WITH A 150 WET SHOT. SHOULD I CHANGE THE LIFTERS (IF SO WHAT KIND?) BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY WHICH CAM BECAUSE THE MS3 FROM HEAR SAY IS BETTER ON THE GAS!!! INPUT IS GREATLY APPRECIATTED!!!!

PS THE CAR HAS 63k MILES ON IT AND IT IS A M6 WITH 3:42S

I would vote the ms4. It's supposed to be an overall improvement over the ms3 (more low-mid range torque, +better top end hp). But on the other hand it is a very high lift cam. Call it questionable for a dd, just depends who you ask though. As far as the nitrous, I couldn't tell you until this time next weekend plus my response will be one sided because I've never seen/rode in an MS3 car spraying.
