First off I wanted to say thank you for all the replies, I apologize for not getting back sooner as work was a little crazy the last week or two.

Oydllay - I will be making a call to Brian Tooley for a cam recommendation so I can figure out what stall speed I will need before I order a converter. And I've seen how impressive these transmissions are, I just didn't want to spend the money on a stock one only to have to upgrade that in a year or two.

72MARIO - What small parts did your builder happen to recommend?

Brew - I've seen a lot of turbo builds running stock transmissions, but I figured those guys just swapped them out every few months, would never have guessed they'd last that long. I guess I will get a price on a new 4l80e from Scoggin Dickey or Jasper. The truck will just be a fun street/strip truck with cam/converter and a few other bolt ons for a while until I decide it's not fast enough lol.
