Performabuilt, RPM and FLT are not only our sponsors, but also answer technical questions on this forum. I cannot recommend anyone else especially because they are really not more expensive than a quality local build. All of them offer a trans with the desirable Sonnax Smart Drum; just understand this is an expensive part, and by the time you "need" that, you should have other parts too, such as a billet output shaft, billet servo pistons, etc. BTW - PerforaBuilt is closest to you.

RPM or FLT. I prefer FLT because I have first hand experience with them. Chuck will get you taken care of and is a great guy to deal with.

RPM is having their sale and Id hop on that.

We are all RPM, can't comment on the others because we have no reason to go any further.
