Trans will be a 4L60-e, 4L60eHD, or 4L65e (4L70e if its from a TBSS or VMax truck). I don't think I'd go TPI w/LSx solutions the available.
The LS engines are today what the small blocks have have been in the past 50-some years.

Search through http://car-part.com/, I saw a ton of engines and trannys in BC.
