I'm going to jump in on this. I am needing mine done as well. I was recommended to get an ATF (Automatic Transmission Factory) trans with a Stage 5 TC. I know nothing about them other than a local guy loves them. They have a 5yr 500,000 mile warranty. I live in Idaho and they are in FL. so shipping is $200 each way (core).
It all sounds good, but I cant find any reviews or feedback on ATF.

Anyone with any reviews or heard anything at all?

well after talking to a local trans builder i am going with alto red cluches and a patc billet triple disc converter and patc billet input shaft and patc billet flex plate since he has it all in stock and he is cuttin me a good deal on it all. since i live in artic conditions he is also setting the valve body to circulate fluid while the truck is in park to get the fluid warm so it isnt so think. i am also adding a afe deep trans pan thanks to ken at kens performance solutions. the trans should be built next week and i will let yall know how it all goes

Probably a good idea to have it built there instead of shipping a whole trans up there! The shipping will be outrageous
