If you daily drive the car then a 3200 stall will be perfect. I had a 3800 stall in my old car and if i had the chance to do it over agian i would have a 3200. I would probably do suspension work first. I wouldnt do a Ms4 if its your only car. Might want to go with a mild cam and stall.

what would be a more mild cam
?
a cam that would go great with a 3200 stall.?
Well since its your only car you dont want to go with to wild of a cam. I made that mistake with my first car. The MS3 should work just fine with a 3200 stall. You could always get a set of 3.73 gears before you do all of that.
The next mod would be a stall if I were you. On the Auto cars it makes a HUGE difference. After that I would put a 100 shot on it. LS Motors love the juice. My car with a lid and 100 shot went 12.0s on some sticky tires with a stock stall and 3.23's. Those were the only mods. If i had a stall it would have been in the 11's. That is fast enough for 80% of the cars you will ever see on the road.
IF you still want more you can add a cam later on. If you want a bit milder cam I would go with a 233/239 cam. I have been in a car with that cam and it was pretty mild and pulled very nicely. Also I have a buddy who daily's a MS3 Auto and that car runs very good as well. Its all up to what you consider mild or extreme. Ask someone with a big cam to take you for a ride or even let you drive the car. See what you think and then make your deicision.
