Suncoast is a great trans, DTT is also a great trans, Dave does good work as well. No real need for an allision unless you just want it. What are your goals for the truck?

duramax guys running max power are switching to the 47RE billet transmissions the clutch to clutch design of the allison make it a poor choice when adding power
