Default 2014 5.3L Silverado Opinion Needed!

I need some advice about making the right decision. I have never done engine work on any vehicle I have ever owned. I have done minor bolt-on things such as what is currently on the truck; cai, cat-back exhaust, and tune. I want to get a good bump in HP, make the truck sound aggressive, and keep it a daily driver. Here is what I am looking to do:



Am I making a good decision for the money? Will there be any issues using this truck as a daily driver? Would it be possible to add on a supercharger later on? I look forward to reading all of the replies about this. I want to learn!

I’d go smaller cam and stall for a daily but that looks like a solid list.

Didn't see it on the list, but 09+ 6L80s have a t stat, so unless you eliminate that; the cooler will be of little benefit

Agreed

.635" lift replacing the springs will be a maintenance item probably before a plug change.
I'm at .629" and will replace springs at the one year mark this July.
