Default Trans upgrade

Well after reading and researching till I feel like I believe this is the route I'm going to take.

I'm planning to add a DTT shift kit to help with the sluggish stock shifts and to add pressure to hopefully enable my trans to live with the mods I have. A little later on I'm also planning a billet single disk DTT converter.

My ultimate goal is to have a fully built trans with a triple disk and billet input. As is that's going be a good ways down the road. My trans isn't slipping at all and with 260k miles on it I'm almost sure it's been rebuilt at least once. With the mods I have do yall' think it hold?

I would do a valve body, rebuild kit and a dpc single disc converter.

I was pretty hard on my trans after my mods before I read how easy it is to cook a stock one. Burnouts, pedal to the metal from each stop sign/light, the normal things you do when your first start making some power Lol. Even after doing that it never slipped. I'm starting to wonder if it's been built up a little bit.
