    unfortunatly my friend there are no deffinate answers here. what ive found is if you have enough motor to doubt your trans you might as well upgrade it to suit you better. hope this bit of wisdom helps.

    Try Chris at CKPerformance (http://ckperformance.com), PTS X-treme Transmissions (http://www.ptsnctb.com). Both will talk to you over the phone, are very knowledgeable and sell all the right parts.

    Art Carr is also out there again doing trannies, but I can't remember his new shop's name.

    Cheap Insurance now.

    I had to switch to a heavy duty 32 tooth sprague when I had my transmission rebuilt. If you have a car and you plan on doing a little racing with it, I would definately find a heavy duty sprague. If you don't.......you might find metal parts and chips circulating through your transmission after your 16 tooth sprague gets wiped out. It's worth it to take care of that with your transmission already apart. It's cheap insurance. Good luck my friend. John Biggs. :TU:
