T5 World Class Transmission Upgrade

Anyone know of an upgrade kit that will make the WC a little more stout without going to the crazy $2000 GForce kit? I have heard bad things about both GForce service as well as their claims on tQ capacity, so I would rather just put in a nice mild upgrade for low bucks.

That's what I am hoping. I will be pushing about 400 tQ / 450 HP, but I am dropping this motor in a 240Z so the total weight it has to push will only be 2400#. Also, it is for road race not strip, so I tihnk that will also be a little easier on the transmission. Still, if there is anything I can do to beef it up, that would be nice.

Anyone know if this will fit? It is the Ford spec internals for the T5. Dunno if the guts swap into the GM T5 or not.
