Default Recommendations for gearing

My buddy has a 2007 tahoe. It's a music vehicle with estimated 2500#s worth of stereo sh*t in it. Now it's a real turd. Looking for gearing and maybe cam recommendation to get it moving a little easier.

2007 yukon
5.3 (lmg I believe)
4l60
He has 26" wheels with 33" tires.
Roughly 2500 extra #s

Thanks

4.10's maybe something slightly deeper. Maybe a cam motion stage 2 214*/220* camshaft for some more torque

with 33s id go 4.56s and summit big truck torkinator cam (212/218 110+3) and spring package. then a cheap set of headers like speed eng or texas speed. get the tune dialed in and it would feel like a completely different truck.

Awesome...thank you

With the torkinator cam will stock convertor be sufficient?

stock converter would be just fine with pretty much any of the small truck cams. although a nice converter is a great upgrade. you could always do one later on down the road if you wanted to, id suggest a triple disc considering the weight of that tahoe if you ever do get one.
