Default auto to t56. who would you trust?

hey guys, i am having a new motor built right now for my 02 ws6. its a lq4 with arp2000 rod bolts, pnp 243s and a mild cam with either a 150 or 200 shot of no2 (still deciding). my stock 4l60e isnt going to last long, already has 140k on it ( never-mind the stock 10bolt) i was looking into 4l80 conversions, but i would much rather a t56. my question is who would you trust to do such a swap? i am in seekonk, ma. 1 guy said rpm, because they will take my working parts in on trade towards the price of the swap, and they do great work. My normal mechanic said he could do it, but i figured id ask the masses 1st.

Thanks in advance,
Bruce

Slowhawk is a sponsor/vendor on here and is very close to you. May want to give him a call, I'm sure he's done it a few times

A built 4l60 and converter can easily take that combo and probably the cheapest option.

It's not a terribly hard swap but Slow hawk is 100% correct, except he should have said a WELL built 4L60E. There are a lot of half *** builders out there.

True, I use RPM. Plan on putting one in shortly into my 700rwhp TA.
