Working on my truck. Very efficient and fast workers. (loved to play with train horn)
Almost had to remove a Belanger header to drop transmission. I didn't bring any header gaskets, so something to think about if your headers interfear with removal.:dontknow:

WOW that is a wealth of info!!! thanks for all the Data- Now if i wasnt the furthest posible place from FL this would be killer- trannys and heavy engine mod's i leave to pro's. so i will take all this data to someone local to see what can happen here. is this your everyday driver how does it shift in town or slower driving? does it jump back- in & out at lower speeds?

Well, I am pulling the engine again as we speak...

The trans is great. Pretty violent compared to stock is about the best way to describe it. NBT and Eddie have driven in it and can tell you the difference. If you want it as a smooth every day driver or to take your girl on a quiet date, this is not the tranny to get, or have the shifts modified smoother.

They can ship you the completed tranny or send yours in for a rebuilt. There is also Joe online vender here I believe that does great work too.

OMG! Bone! Welp I guess you got the best of the best but I thought it was a lot cheaper. I got to do this soon too. My tranny bothers me. I'm hoping maybe next April or so.

I know Suncoast has authorized dealers around the US. You can ask Ron at Suncoast. I believe they have a web page of the dealers but would have to look for it.

I would do the Heavy Duty upgrade with the torque converter since you have to drop the tranny anyhow. Improve the clutch packs.
Next, intermediate shaft and valve body.
