Default C6 Trans upgrade options

So my 07 trans snapped the output shaft in the rear dif. The car is a cammed ls2 with a borgwarner s366. It made 575whp and 680ftlb. Im looking to find the best option for a trans. Its hard to research and find answers so if any one has experience please let me know.
Thank you

RPM Transmission in Indiana is solid choice. Call and speak to Jeremy. The output shafts can be upgraded to a stronger metal (300m i think).

Tick performance makes the best Transmissions hands down.The know what they are doing and are Great at it. The only complaint i would have will be the shipping methods but besides that they are the Best in the business.

You can get a new 6060 from a 2008 Z51, with the cooler for $3K and it will bold in. Better than T56.
