save your money, $350 will buy you a small stall that would be a waste of time, money and effort. get an empty water jug and put your change in it, count it at the end of the month and buy a kick *** stall, hell u might just have a enough to even have someone install it 
just my $.02
just my $.02

This is not a part on the car you want to go cheap on. It will be worth it in the long run. I just seen what happens when one of these blow up at my buddys shop. Metal shavings every where thru out the tranny. Needs to be completly cleaned out and rebuilt. Now there is some money gone down the drain. Save your money. Get a quailty one. Another $.02 worth

I got lucky enough to have two of them myself. One blew up after 3 months, and the other took three dyno pulls and then grenaded. I threw a Yank in and my problems went away. By all means, waste your money. 
Hopefully its good for me
