    Does this look like a diet that would help me put on some lean mass? Maybe I need more cals, probably from carbs but I work well on low/med carbs.

    I'm quite sure you'll add some weight at 3600 calories/day, but don't be so shy with carbs. Personally, i'd lower the protein and fat and bump your carbs significantly. I doubt you'll need more calories; if anything, maybe less depending on whether you start adding too much bodyfat too quickly.

    ^^^^this.

    there are also stickies for bulking/lean bulking that can help out

    only way to see if it works is to run it for a few weeks and see what happens!
