Default Who makes a good built t-56?

I have all the parts in my m6 from D&D performance. But I have a problem with the trans wanting to grind a little on down shifts. It got better after fluid change ( It was a milky gray color) but still there. I will have it looked at when I take it out to do the clutch. If it is going out I want to do a up-grade trans. who makes one other than D&D? I love there stuff, but want to know what is out there.

I just got my LS2/LS7 clutch and rebuilt tranny from T56 Rebuilds.com. All i can say is they (Joe and Amber) are great to work with, I got their basic package which included strengthened parts plus a new second gear for just over $1000 with labor and free shipping. I will be putting the tranny in tomorrow so i dont know how their work is but just from their costumer service and from what i hear from other guys on this site they are awsome. Check out their site, www.t56rebuilds.com

and if you really want to open up the wallet you can call g-force, but Joe might be able to get that stuff for you for less.
