Pay a visit to Karl at Redline Diesel in Burbank Ohio. Karl builds some killer transmissions and you have a local guy to go to if something happens.

RDPDiesel :: Redline Diesel Power

He's right off the 71 - SR 83 exit.

I have ridden in a couple of trucks Karl did the trans in. They are nice. I am saving up for one of his VB's now and soon he is going to doing the head on my 12V.

I ended up getting a jasper transmission because it was considerably cheaper than goerend or suncoast. hopefully it will hold up knock on wood

Jasper=Nothing more than a stock rebuild and a bad one at that.

Cheaper does not mean better quality,especially when one has mods for fueling enhancements.

This will be an area that you will address again but I understand if your budget didn't allow for doing it right the first time.
