None of those upgrades does anything to increase the torque capacity of the trans. They really only help with shift quality.
As far as I know the only real torque upgrade for the LT/LS T56's is a mainshaft upgrade. They come with 27 spline outputs stock. You can go to the 30 spline viper mainshaft. A friend who works on GM manuals said there is a T56 that came in SSR truck that has a 32 spline main shaft.

I was advised to just buy a T56 magnum, because it already has all the upgrades.
