if you are a to it yourselfer PATC transmission has a bunch of good parts you can upgrade your RH with. georand builds great stuff. i run ATS, there are mixed reviews with them but i love their TC so far. i have a ATS towing VB ide sell cheap. there are a bunch of good parts out there.

if ur not running over 40psi ur not gonna b close to 500hp. u can build a nice trans yourself for 3k ish... your gonna need a full rebuild....billet input....triple disk and a vb or shift kit to hold 500hp reliably... for a dd i would go with studs at that powerlevel. with a DD its better to over build then to skimp and wish you hadn't on the side of the road waiting for a tow.

check out DTT Performance Diesel Transmission and Power Accessories for trans parts they have good stuff at good prices.
O and dont forget your billet flex plate! sucks going down the freeway and go to pass someone and rip the center out of the crappy stock one.

its so funny that these 12 valve's are indestructible but the trans goes bye with just a little bit of power added to stock
