New 383, Now for the tranny...need advice

I`ll have the new 383 installed in a few weeks, It`s running about 450hp and I`m looking for suggestions speaking from experience. I already have the counsel megashifter by B&M setup for the 700r4; So I was leaning towards a "bullet-proof" 700r4 from outlaw transmissions. If anyone has any feedback from dealing with these guys it would be greatly apprieciated, also, if you have any other tranny suggestions I will definately consider them. Thanks!

TCI has a new valve body for the 700r4.Its a constant pressure valve body that if you get your detent cable adjustment off it wont burn the trans up.Also you can shift manually or let it shift automatically.Its a nice set up check into it.
