either tsp or tr would be good as long as your springs are good for the lift.

How's your truck do with the 4.10's? I've got stock 3.42's with a 27' tall tire.

Don't forget to look at the lobe design on each of the cams. I don't know what they are myself, but should definately be considered.

So like a 3600 stall? I was planning on at least a 3200. Am I going to lose driveability with that large of a stall?

3200 is fine IMO, and you won't loose any driveability. But I do think the 220/220 112 would be better.

I would do the gears first , talk about a great improvement, then converter, Cam, go with a split pattern cam ( more lift & duration on exhaust side) I did heads and Cam last after headers and other bolt ons. U build the foundation first. my opinion of course
