I just had my local transmission shop build and install a 700R4 to replace my TH350 - love the extra gear, and the 700R4 is smooth as butter. The shop owner and I discussed a GearVendors overdrive kit which he had experience with, but for roughly the same price he recommended a built 700R4.

Note that I have a stock 350 engine, and not towing, hauling, or pushing through extra HP - although he claims it can handle up to 450HP with his build. I am pleased with the results.
