Is this good enough for bolt ons?

Is this good enough for bolt ons?
I just installed SLP LTs, SLP ORY, cutout, LS6 intake, lid, and a Fuddle converter.
I am planning on a set of 4.10s, a ported TB and an UD pulley. For a max effort LS1 (big heads and TRex on the way) is this good enough? Is there anything I am missing? I know about the smooth bellows and the aftermarket MAF but I have heard it's just a waste of money. Let me know guys, thanks

MAF is waste, bellows for looks only. Underdrive pulley, but it's a gamble with an auto. Don't forget the most important mod besides the driver... A good tune will work wonders. Get a dyno tune after your installs.

You are gonna need a tune if you want it to not fall flat on it's face. Trust me. I know.
Are you gonna daily drive this thing? I see you asking so many questions about it...just wondering if that is what you plan on doing. That stall is gonna suck ***** in heavy traffic.

The big convertor in traffic should be the least of your worries, it's not bad..unless you're talking about how gas mileage suffers with city stop and go driving (at least you don't have to 2 foot it like a 6 spd)
Do the pulley, you're going to have the front of the motor apart, might as well (I saw 10 rwhp out of it)
Ive heard about 4.10s in stock rears being a bad call...don't know what to believe on that. I'll tell you how 3.73s are early next week when I get my car back with the t-rex and new heads
Robert @ Extreme mentioned getting a shaner ported TB and a ram air setup...which I'll probably do here in a couple months.
With the size of the T-rex its hard not to drop DCR, but it's not near as bad being ground on a 110 lsa
Lastly, have Jason @ the unnamed shop tune on it and you should be happy. I'll let you know what mine does hopefully later this week when they're done with the dyno thrashing
