I had the Superior kit and it worked great. Installation was straightforward and the results were well worth the cost of the kit. Never had any trouble with the tranny at all after it was installed. I would recommend getting new VB separator gaskets when doing the install. I had it done in less than 4-5 hours, only problem I encountered was I forgot to hook the manual linkage back up to the valvebody when I reinstalled everything. I had to drop the pan, drain the fluid and drop the VB again to reinstall it, but was quick enough to fix. Don't forget a good in-lb torque wrench either.
