Before you buy from a non sponsor, I can tell you there is a non sponsor that lists everything in these kits seperate.
I can tell you, if I wanted to spend the time I could show you, invoices of the same stuff bought from the other non sponsor that costs half the price you have listed.

You should be asking a sponsor here what their prices are for similiar kits. Anyone on this board will tell you the sponsors here are the best you'll find anywhere. The bonus is they're always here to help. It might be a better idea to buy from them IMO

dont get one with some no name stall. you will be sorry. i pieced everything together on my tranny and it is so smooth and can handle some power. besides, some of the crap on that list is totally outdated or unnecessary.

Get the $700 kit. The thick 3-4 steels are good to have. They sell Dacco converters, thats what you'll get. They're not bad, just rebuilt and upgraded cores, but they are one of the largest converter rebuilders.
