You'll be up more into the meat of the powerband, even with the stock cam. Guys have run converters on basically stock engines before and been very happy with the results

my CC with the 5.3/60e/3:42s went 15.6 all motor/stock converter. added a converter and went 14.8. it was a fun upgrade imo.
run a 3000 converter man, just incase you ever decide to run a bigger cam you already have the converter for it plus you wont struggle having to sale the smaller converter to afford the bigger converter.

I speak from experience... Check out my signature. I love having a stall! The stall in my signature is perfect for a stock 6.0 if you want to launch in the meat of its power. Absolutely NO bog after launch.

<<<-----my truck has just a verter with the 6.0 plus I/E/tune
and its night and day difference in acceleration, but i have 100+lbs worth of wheel/tire
it does allow me to burn out from 0 into second gear, under 20 it rips the tires
