better acceleration. mine is a 2400 stall so it is good for daily driving, i wouldnt go any higher than that. im not sure how much it cost because it came with my new transmission. i think you can get them for around $500

Built Transmission

You can do a search for built transmission on the web. I had mine done 2 weeks ago and i love it. I had the following added:

Red Band Kevlar Clutches
Upgraded shift kit
Upgraded stall converter

The truck accelerates better in all gears, including OD. Shifts are firm and quick. No hunting for gears. Immediate response moving out of OD to passing gear.
