Well the TTS kit has been run at high levels, but you will probably need new clutches too that doesn't come in that kit. Then you will need a T/C that isan't included in the kit. By the time you buy the other parts you need you are getting pretty close to the price of a Suncoast Stage III.

The converter is a weak link, you could see if anyone has a stock low mileage LBZ converter if you're on a tight budget. I have a few laying around.
i ran the TTS tranny kit and so far i'm very impressed just wish i had gotten a good TC not the TCS one that i have.

how much for the t/c??? why a stock lbz one and not a tts or banks...or even a lb7...
thanks
TTS or a Banks would be better than a stock LBZ. You can pick up an almost new LBZ converter for 200-300.00. These have proven to be fairly stout units compared to the LB7 ones.
I would recommend you put in a good converter like SC, Precision, TTS, but if you don't have the coin, I'd rather through in a 200 dollar like new converter than the old piece.
