Default 4.8 cAm suggestions

IM looking for a cam for my 4.8l sierra. I really wanna go with the tr224 from Wut i have ready its a good cam performance wise and maintains drivability. I have k&n cai Long tubes magnaflow muffler tune 4.10s and 3000 stall circle d converter. I plan on swapping to an lq4 or lq9 eventually and i want a cam that i can swap over from the 4.8. Throw yalls 2cents in. Thanks.

is it a RCSB/ECSB/CCSB?
if its a RCSB i think you can get away with the 3000 converter, if its the ECSB/CCSB id run a 3200 just to help with the weight. which cam is it? 224/224.581.581 112? betta put a big tranny cooler on there too to help out
