RPM is a good start. But look around. There are many shops that can build a trans to your hp needs not just RPM.

I am on board here as well - BUT if you have a local "TUNER" who recommends a good tranny shop that knows our Vette's you could go that route - That is what I did and it is great!

But make sure you compare them to RPM, parts and price - because if you don't you can end up paying more and getting less - So it would then be best to purchase a RPM tranny and have it installed instead

Thanks,Matt
