Well good news is a SunCoast transmission is a really good idea. But don't forget the converter as well. I just had the good fortune of meeting "Joe" of Sun Coast and had the time for the grand tour. I had their ultimate trippple disc converter, super flex plate and real bearing mounted giant input shaft and "over-tuff" transmission with new valve body and to top it off a redesigned and super tough overdrive unit installed in my CTD. I actually watched one being built. Its truly amazing and worth every nickle... . I drove it very loaded (about 3100lbs) in the BED... . for about 5 hours in city and interstate traffic till I got home from a dive trip carrying tanks, gear and lead for my students. Not a whimper, whine or complaint... . just all pull and hard!!!!! Hooooo Hoooooo!!!!! Was it great to be able to pull out into the fast lane, at 70mph, loaded and walk past a Powerstroke, accelrating... . I'm still grinning!!!!

And Joe, what a guy, I got to take a ride in his CTD, its got twins!!!!! From a standing stop at a light he punched it and left a white mercedes wondering where the intersection went as he left double streaks of rubber for 40 feet. Over 80mph in 2 BLOCKS..... Had to back off, everything behind us was gone in black smoke, he he... . I didn't know adually could do that... WOW!

Give him a call, he's a man to get to know... ... .
