Do some shopping. FLP makes a nice unit.

An outage with cheapest product would negate any savings. Go for the most built trans. I chose the FLP Level 5 transmission.

ECS has rebuilt transmissions. They were able to do a season and a half on it with their 800rwhp monster. That is a LOT of runs. So with a milder car, their tranny setup will work for ya I am sure.

Call Chris or Doug @ ECS and ask them about it.
If you say the PEST Glenn sent ya, they will hang up on you though!

Oh. I forgot to mention they try to always have a rebuilt in STOCK! So they tell me anyway!
