Default What kind do I have???

I have an 04 silverado 4x4 5 spd, single cab short bed. I've been looking on the Internet for the type of trans I have, but have had no luck, does anyone have a clue what kind it is, I know it's not a t56, and wouldn't think it's the same as a diesel, really wanting to know if I can make it hold 1000 hp or if I need to swap an allison.
KEEPING TRUCK 4WD, BUT MAKING A BEAST.
eventually going to go with prerunner flares and a 1 piece front end, lowering truck 2 and 4 inches, and going large single turbo. With the flares I can still run 33s lowered and keep my gears, but I know I'll have a huge list of parts to bulletproof. I'll be rebuilding the entire vehicle so not really worried about how much work it'll take, but I am working on a budget ( hence why I'm considering the allison swap or just bulletproof in the manual.

Don't have it on hand. But it's a factory 5spd. Any idea what was used from the factory??
Not at my house tonight

Looks to be an nv3500, does that sound right?? If so can I use parts from an nv4500 or 5600? Or would an allison be a cheaper route, they hold 700 ft lbs from the factory, so it wouldn't take nearly as much to hold 1000

I never knew that Allison made manual 'boxes for pickups.

I meant I was going to switch to the allison 6 speed 1000 that comes behind the duramax diesels.
Automatic.
