Actually. If you tow that much, I would say go with the 2400-2600 300mm Circle-D. If you get a performabuilt transmission, (at least the lvl 2 I know for sure), it comes with an external trans cooler. Or you can opt for the trucool 40k which you can get from Circle-D when you order your stall (assuming you get it from there). The 278mm converters stall higher, but they're rated to tow less at 4000lbs, but if you're going to tow anything close to that weight, with one of those stalls, you'd almost have to have the 40k cooler I'd think.

I don't tow frequently enough to build it for towing. A small camper and maybe a trailer with some dirtbikes and quads. I'm probably going to go with the level 2 and a 2600 circle D. On a side note, I noticed the denali and escalade gauge clusters have a tranny temp gauge. Is it simple enough to just buy one and install it with a sensor, or is it a bit more complex than that?
