Default New transmission

I have a 2000 trans am and since I fixed my high idle problem the 1-2 shift has been really hard. At half throttle it jerks the car and right now I have no way to change my shift pressures. The trans fluid is still pink and does not smell of varnish. It is currently stock with just a magnaflow catback and a minor tune. I want something that is going to last with a nice warrenty. I do have another stock 4l60e that was out of a truck so I would have to change the input shaft and would make sure the trans is good before I put it in. Either putting the other trans in or getting a rebuilt one that is stronger is an option. Who makes the best trans for the buck?

Yes it is my daily driver. I want a performance trans that can be your dd but also is strong enough for the track once i start modifying it more.
