Default Question about driveablity and gas mileage

Ok well heres the thing. The car is a LS1, Auto, 3.42 gears, ported tb, lid, headers, Patriot 5.3 heads, XE 230/230 cam, and I have a Yank 4400 stall sitting in the garage. Would that be too much. I am staying NA, and it will be a car I drive quite a bit. How is driveablitly on that. What about gas mileage. I would get a good tune with it for sure. Just thought Id ask and see what you guys thought.

Go for it. But do not worry about gas consumption. It is a lost cause. Performance equals less fuel mileage.
