which kit to make a 700r4 strong enuf?

I want to have my 700r4 rebuilt and would like to supply the rebuilder with the parts myself (bands,clutches,pump,etc) what is a good company to get these parts from? I was thinking level 10. The tranny already has a b&m shift kit so I will leave all of the valve body alone.
Also is the corvette servo a good investment? I want a positive shift not something that will always break the tires loose in between shift.
The motor that is in front of this tranny is in sig

Take a look at my site, as I carry everthing that is needed to do this right including a new "M" 1-2 accumulator to give nice 1-2 part throttle shifts. Look under the rebuild kits for your particular application. I would recommend using the Trans-Go Performance shift kit as it will you to solve some of the problems inherent in the 700R4. This kit gives the 3-4 clutch pack apx. 200-300 more capacity, cleaner 2-3 & 3-2 part throttle & WOT shifts, the ability to hold any gear to any rpm, eliminates the accidental apply of the 3-4 clutches, firmer 4th gear WOT shift, etc. I use the latest Borg Warner Hi-Energy clutches & band, along with the latest updates. The site is www.pro-built.net
I Hope This Helps!!!

That was 200-300% more capacity for the 3-4 clutch pack. This is a correction for the above.
