I think you need to honestly ask yourself what the goals are for your truck.
Are you going to be yanking around sleds every weekend? Doing 3K RPM launches at the drag strip? Do you want to be the king of the dyno? If you think this is honestly where you are headed than you'll need more than a TC and VB. You'll want the best bearings you can get, at least one but probably more billet shafts...basically a full rebuild with a lot of expensive hard parts.
I see you list a HD TC in your sig. Who makes it and what are the specs.
If all you want is a semi-powerful daily driver than you can probably get a way with adding a VB to your TC and call it good.

i dont know wat the specs and make r on the tc just that wen i took to get rebuilt it was the only aftermarket bigger than stock tc he could get through his dealer at that time I didnt hav the money 2 go with an ats, or something like that. As of right now its only a daily driver and may put on a dyno then in future i may drag or even pull but not looking to go that big now bc in school and money issue

I know goerends uses torrington bearings in his transmissions, which I think is a great idea, but the local transmission guy here says they are prone to failure because you cant lube them enough. I dont know much about transmissions, just who makes a good one pretty much. I would go with goerends if I could afford it, but i was thinking about doing the suncoast rebuild, with transgo shift kit and a single disk tc for now.
