Luke was looking at some overseas part as an in between spec I think? All clear now, I was just confused why you were talking about stock parts and mentioning $5k prices. No need to buy a new (stock) box unless it's milkshaked. Also buying input shaft and flexplate upgrades for a tuned T but leaving the rest stock will only get you a worn out stock box that needs a rebuild again. Mine has been upgraded in terms of flex plate and internals when I rattled the flex plate off at the drags, but retains stock input shaft since I had a factory heat treated one that "if you haven't broken it yet, you won't break it". Done me well so far!
