Try it on the stock converter first and see. As torquey as the low duration/low lift cams are, I'd bet you'll still benefit from a higher stall like the 3200.

I had that cam in my first 5.3 with a TB stall and it was a dog before my Yank. You are for sure gonna want a stall, and that one will be a nice choice!!!!

I would defiantly put that converter in. I have a completely stock 4.8 with just tuned and exhaust and it made a huge difference over stock. You won't be disappointed with it.
