Default shift kit and stall for 08 Vortecmax

after looking around at cams i decided to just to a shift kit and stall, with torque converter and exhuast ect. any ideas and what stall to go with, i want aggressive as i can get without loosing the daily driver, and im really not sure if this is the way to go vs lunati or comp cams, any advice will be much appreciated, just looking to get the absolute most hp for 3k it aint much but its a start.

I thought vortec max trucks got the 4L65e, unless you did the 80e swap yourself already.

3k? Longtube headers, tune, muffler, and gears would be a nice start

I've got about the same truck with 33's. I've done a 4l80e swap though and I have the circle d 3k and I love it. I can brake stall in 2wd to 3300ish and in 4wd I can brake stall to 3800ish. I've been DDing it for the last 7 months and the stall is almost to the point I hardly notice it. I also have pace setter long tubes and a tune from blackbear.
