MS3 cam ?
It is a big cam that loves RPMs. You will want to spin it to about 7000 to get its full potential. If you want to spin that high you might want to look at upgrading the rod bolts. You can get the TSP dual spring camshaft package with the MS3 and you will have almost everything you need. Wouldn't be a bad idea to get new lifters if you have a lot of miles on your car but your heads need to come off for those, so its your call. A lot of people replace the oil pump and timing chain while they are in there to.
I have a MS3 in my car and it makes good power, but you will need to change your valve springs since stock can't handle the lift, and as mchdg86 said it is a good idea to change your lifter...LS7 would be my pick cause the cheap and keep the noise down. don't forget you'll need to pull the heads to change lifters tho

Stock?? You will want all supporting mods first... headers, catback, gears, stall/clutch and so on. Stock rockers will be fine.. you will need to swap valve springs, pushrods, oil pump and timing chain

I had the Futral F13 in my old Z28 and to me was a perfect DD cam that had great power(381 rwhp through an A4) and ran good times at the track(11.6x-11.7s).
