Mods, Tranny, opinions PLEASE!

So i live in Minnesota and have recently purchased a 3.4 pulley, PLOG, 104s, 180 stat, 3 inch DP, K&N cai.

the cai is installed, but i am waiting for the roads to clear n warmer weather to do the rest, i plan on doing full exhaust and going catless, then getting tuned at my work.

Here is my real question, the car is a 98 GTP with just over 100k, i am the 2nd owner to a middle aged lady and im pretty sure the car has been driven nice, with the above mentioned mods, is my stock tranny going to hold up?

I work at a GM dealership and the "tranny guy" said he would install a shift kit for me for a pretty reasonable price, if i do this such as an intense kit, would i be able to safely do more modding? such as rockers, maybe cam?


If that all sounded really dumb, please dont castrate me, just correct me kindly.
thanks
 


Installing a shift kit would be a very good idea on your car and Intense is one of the most complete kits out there and is one I recommend using. Because of the mileage you are hit and mis on how long it will live but there are plenty of them out there with a lot of miles and still ticking...... some of them ticked and went boom a lot of miles prior lol but that is the risk you take when adding more power to a stock trans.
 
Okay thanks a lot Trannyman, what is a fair price for a tech to install a shift kit in the GTP? Would be a side cash job. About how long would it take an experienced tranny tech to do it?
 
you might as well do a service to while everything is apart. the whole job should only take about an hour and a half max, possibly less if he uses a rack and air tools
