Overdrive by itself doesn't solve all of your problems. The lock up converter is the difference, and the low first gear. I'd do a built 700 before the Gear Vendors, and if I was going all out, a 4L80e. The gear vendors does nothing about the crappy first gear of a TH350 or TH400, but the 700 does, even better than the 4L80.
