I would like to get your thoughts on this car and it's build. It currently has trouble w/ bucking and spitting under 3k-3.5k rpm. Can this be tuned with this large cam to be at least drivable between 1500-2k? Any recommendations would be helpful as well.

You can absolutely make it drivable. Especially your drivability goals.
Are you tuning it or do you have a tuner? Did you/he dynotune it AND street tune it?
My cam is smaller than yours but by no means a "small" cam and my Wife drives it with ease.
