They are supposed to be a good tranny they use the same clutches as suncoast( from what Dan at PPE told me) they also use ATS converters a lot but will use what you want them to use. I have decided to go with the sun cost IV or V with the 1057 converter, when I get the $$$. The sun cost has a pretty good warranty if you buy the fully built trans.

I will go with the Suncoast kit when it is time. I think the kit is pretty reasonably priced and guys seem to be having good luck with it.

Give Mike Lovrich a call he is one of the best with the Allison(310)674-4400, he likes sun cost but I think he has done some PPE ask him about the differences. He is a very helpful person.

You won't go wrong with either company.
