What are you trying to accomplish? It's hard to know what to think of the cam without knowing how much advance it has.

How do you want it to idle? How much will you drive it? Manners will be important on a daily driver.

Just a daily driver, with the option of having fun when i get on the loud pedal on demand.. im leaning more towards a 3000 possibly a 3200 stall, im sure the 4.88s will help out off the line definately.

The cam has +2 for advance. I was researching last night and came across a somewhat similar cam

Comp Cam Extreme RPM High Lift Series
3710R/3713R
214/220 .559 .564 111.5

You are in the right ball park. You may not like the higher stall converter with the heavier weight of the big tires.
