It'll be fine. Not optimal, but fine.

Go with the 3.73's and the 3200 or even a 3600.

3.73's and a 3200 or 3600 as mentioned would be a much better choice.

A 3200 is 100% streetable.

I had the 846 w/ 373's and a 2500

It was great, but the 3200 would have been much better.

seems to me the vig slips on the top side too much with any thing larger than 2800.
