Looking at Chassis from TCI and Art Morrison. This will be a daily driver with adjustable coil overs front and back. Not sure if i should be looking at a T56 or a 4L60. Let me know what you guys think and suggest. I'm just trying to get some ideas at this point

I money isn't a limiting factor, I'd go with a T56 Magnum 6-speed with the wide ratio. Or, if you want an automatic, go with a 4L60 with a Gear Vendors o/d. Both choices would be perfect with a 5.3L and a 3.73 rear.
