B&M or Transgo shift kit

My local speed shop can get both but they want $65 more for the transgo and i wanted feedback before i spent the money. Both are true shift kits, not "improver kits", he just sources the B&M cheaper. So with money tight what have other people found. The car will have a 350 TPI down the road and the tranny is getting the full work up for that now with torque convertor and governor (GM likely cuz thatz who the guy works for) I want to do more than just drag race the car (autocross this summer) and it's a daily driver too when its nice.
Thanks TIM

The B&M is not a Shift kit, nor has it ever been. The Trans-Go is the only way to go. If you are looking for nice part throttle shifts and firm WOT shifts, then you should look into the "modified" Trans-Go Performance Shift kit with accumulation. These kits come with both boost valves, Corvette servo, and the Trans-Go accumulation to get the nice part throttle shifts, and the new D-ring seals for the Corvette servo. Do some research on this, to satisfy your curiosity.
