6L80 to 10L90 swap? Seeking insight on a 10 speed transmission upgrade

Upgrade your the factory torque converter on the 10 speed. You don't even need to change the factory stall speed...just get a better one. Circle D, Yank, TCI, etc.

Been thinking about this myself. But I was also thinking a built 6L80 and a Gear Vendors splitter would set me back about $8k and I'd have a 12 speed and I don't have to replace my Circle D torque converter.

oh wow! Has this been done before? 12 speed is pretty awesome! How do you control that? Is it as simple as a tune? Or does the Gear Vendors splitter have a control module?

so besides the actual 10 speed transmission, the TCM, transmission control module?
what about any tuning for this 10 speed?

Negotiation with the East Coast shop fell through. I am now on the schedule for my 10 speed swap at Powertrain Swap Solutions headquarters in Nederland, TX on August 12! Road trip it is!
