The right way is to have someone like FLP to do the trans right.If you can't afford to do it right maybe do a t400 much cheaper to build but i don't know about the extras to get it up in running.

Ive priced them an a TH400 conversion costs about $500 more than say a FLP Level 4. Plus with the FLP you get OD. If its your daily driver stick with the 4L60E.
