what should tranny rebuild cost?

I have an 05 2500 LLY and my tranny is almost gone. I was looking into a suncoast III. All i do is tow a little but mainly just use it as a daily driver, no sled pulling or racing and i have no desire to later go to a big tune, just want better gas mileage. Max load i would haul would be about 8-9k plus truck. What tranny and converter would be best for me and what should this cost roughly?
Thanks,
Paul

you can get it done for about 3k or just under if your not looking for huge power...like up to 500hp or so


all depends on the parts and builder
