I have an HSS American Standard and a Marshall amp. Looking for a heavy/grungy type sound.

Bridge: JB Trembucker
Middle: Lil '59 Strat
Neck: Hot Rails OR Cool Rails Strat (Cant decide)

I'm not very knowledgeable about how pickups work together. I've researched these pickups and how they sound but have a few questions...

1. Suggestion between Cool Rails and Hot Rails

2. Would this combination have any issues working well together?

3. Does it make a difference which position (Neck or Middle) that I put the Lil '59 and whichever one of the HR's or CR's that I decide? If so, what do you suggest?

Thanks for the help guys!

This could just as well be discussed on the pickup topic you already started, viewtopic.php?f=6&t=99854&p=1132755#p1132755

But, to the subject:
1. Seems to me you're a Hot Rails person *grin*
2. That's a helluvahot pickup combo. If you aim at that, maybe - it's also a quite unusual combo, since the pups aren't in their planned positions.
3. Pickups are designed for certain positions, but there's no law on experimenting.
My suggestion: you might also consider the SD Dave Murray loaded pickguard
