Default major mods?

ok guys i want some ideas! ive got intake, exhaust, headers on the way, so my basic bolt up stuff is done or being done!! im really wanting a converter that will do me justice for the price! i would still like to pull a load if i have to or want to if i can do it! have a cam picked out, its a livernois stage 1c cam 218/229 .600/.600 LSA-117.5, want to get livernois ls "chrome" spring and retainer kit (good for up to .690 lift)... want to change lifters but dont wana take heads off, will this cam/spring package be ok with the factory lifters? idk what to do on pushrods and want to get some roller rockers (not sure if 1.7 or 1.8 would be better)... that pretty much sums it up so what you guys think? i would also really like to get some 4.10 gears put in as well.. keep in mind this is and will be my daily driver so dont want it to out of hand haha.. just yet

Not sure you would need lifters with that cam. A 3000 stall is always a good choice

stock lifters are fine, get some harden push rods, save your money, no need for rockers neither stocks are fine, money saved there will get you a nice 3k-3200 stall and gears 4:10s would be nice

ya ive always been picky and wanted to change lifters when changing cam pushrods ect. just bc but thats on old 350 chevys were all you need is a 9/16 5/8 and some silicone! haha.. but im not ready to pull off my heads on my 09 just yet! ive seen that cam on youtube that livernois has and its pretty stout with the mods ill have and ill have little more with stall.. will the 3000 stall be ok when pulling and riding around everywhere? or am i gona have to worry about it tearing up? also my tranny temps pulling a 3500lbs truck on a open trailer only got up to about 155, and regular driving only about 130 so i really dont think i need a bigger cooler unless a stall will heat it up that much?
