Question New Guy

I dont have truck but I have a 5.3 that Im putting a 1978 Malibu. There is alot of good information on the 5.3 here. I have several questions.
What is a tb stall?
What size is a stock tb?
What is a good cam for dd that has a 2400 stall? I want it sound like it has a little cam to it too. Sound clips would be nice too.
I have 4.10 gears now but could change. I will also have headers and no cats.I want to maintain decent mpg. I just want to get some stuff done to it while its out of my car. Any other suggestions for performance gain would be appreciated.

Welcome to the site man, there are allot of cams that would work decent. I tend to like the 212/218 Low lift from Comp for a 5.3 NA Thats just my opinion though.
