Default thoughts on set up

Ok so after I blew my last set up with a 5.3 243 heads and 224/224 cam tbss intake and headers blah blah blah I decided to go bigger. I got an lq9 ordered a set of prc 2.5 5.3 heads and a torquer v2. This is all going into a 04 esrb 4x4 with 373 and stock rims and shoes.along with a mild built 4l60 with a 3200 stall. This is my daily driver but I wanted it to be fun. I hope to get it dynoed soon. Oh and it has a toolbox and aluminum ladder rack on it. Kinda of my little sleeper contractor style.

My question is after looking ans searching not only here but on other sites I have not found others with a similar set up and am looking to see what I might expect.

Future plans are either no2 or forced induction. To much has been spent on this phase already. That will have to wait.
Thanks for your any input.

My friend had a 6.0 with those heads and a V3 torquer it put down 460rwhp but was a 6sp in a C5 vette. Your combo should run hard naturally aspirated.

You will want different heads with a larger combustion chamber volume if you go forced induction later on.
