Default TCI vs FLT trans??

Which trans is better, TCI or FLT?? Without looking at the price. It is for a DD F-body with 400rwhp.
I have read a lot of good things about FLT, but really havent read nothing about the TCI trans.

As many TCI converters as I have seen blown up, I wouldn't trust their trans. FLT hands down.

FLT by far. Give Andy a call when you are ready. You will not go wrong. Besides look at how many people just on this thread recommend FLT over TCI. Doesn't that tell something about the quality of FLT trans? They are building me a Level 7 as we speak.

Attention to detail is what makes quality. FLT seems to be meticulous almost to a fault. I build these units also, as a hobby, but I cant come close to the details that FLT adresses in their units. FLT hands down!
