I'll be very interested in a full report on your shortblock, after the break-in period. I have checked out their website and they offer a "nice" price on the short-block.
Just another option in life

I hear that. I'm going through the same thing with my truck. Just got it back with the built block, and KB, but didn't have enough coin for the tranny.

Don't hold your breath! I've had mine back for a week and a half, and the stock tranny is already starting to slip. Good Luck!
