Mods
I'm currently working on installing some kooks headers, a FAST intake manifold, and a 102mm Throttle body from Nick Williams. Out of curiosity, will my stock transmission be able to handle the increase the new torque output? The only other mod that is on this vehicle is a Borla Atak exhaust and a cold air intake from CAI. I'm fairly new to modding so I don't want to screw it up.

Should be fine...some guys have said their stock clutch worked fine up to around 600rwtq

Awesome, I was just looking around on the chevy perfomance site and saw that the stock trans was technically only rated for 440 ft/lbs of torque. I don't exactly want to be replacing that yet!

Absolutely.....If you treat the trans/clutch right, it will last a long time. You can kill the clutch with stock power if you really wanted to.

I have essentially all available bolt-ons and have 402hp at the wheels, about a 30-40hp gain over stock and no issues. |

Well that's a given, I've done enough research to know that it needs to be tuned after putting the mods on.

I'm hoping to do the cam and heads next winter, I've heard the cam is pretty easy, but as a novice, that may not be the case.
