I have a 1996 12v and in was wondering what the best trans and torque converter to go with???

how much power you wanting to make?

500 or under just a good single disc torque converter, shift kit
500+ triple disc torque converter, flex plate, billet input, HD rebuild kit, valvebody
crazy hp+ full billet

I recommend goerend for TC or full billet trans. suncoast for the HD rebuild kit. DTT makes good Valvebodies.

i have a 96 aswell and im on my 5th auto trans triple disc converter and it still screws them up just do a 5 or 6 speed converstion i just bought a donor truck to to do mine with its much easyer that way and cheaper

I'm at about 380 rite now all I have is my pump done , 5 Inc turbo back, intake , 4gsk ,
I was thinking about going with suncoast or ats but I'm not sure yet

if ya plan on more upgrades but are gonna keep around 500hp just go ahead & change your flexplate,spend a lil more on triple disc convertor & get the trannsmission you think is best.the suncoast is about half the price of the ats but ats has better warranty & can take more power

I am not an auto guy so i have no direct experience, however from what i have heard it is exactly opposite.

on most of the sites iv checked for prices the suncoast is usaully 1-2k cheaper than an ats

Just because its cheaper than ats's inflamed prices doesnt mean that its worse than ats's products.

i never said that they were better i said that suncaost usaully chepper & that ats has better warranty & can take more power
