transmission arrived thursday
The trans took a couple extra days. He has a load cell / trans dyno and found a cracked valve body making the trans miss behave then had to source and mod it for the shift kit reinstall and redyno. the trans has the Alto G3™ Friction kit including Kolene® Steels .
5k final price 24 month/ unlimited mile warranty (includes Bonneville use). Included 3 disk Torque converter , GM bell, rear mount tail shaft housing, upgraded internals , and swapping the 3rd gen(5sp pre 06) Allison for a 4th gen(6sp 06+) . after further research I found an individual that had already transplanted an Allison into a a 1st gen cummins he said that and he only had to do minor clearancing to fit the beast. so "I changed horses mid stream" and decided that the extensive mods and body lift required for the SAE#2 bell was not going to help my end goals for Bonneville. This decision had a price of $1495.00 for a cummins to GM bell Allison motor plate with the proper SFI 29.3 flexplate (SFI required by Bonneville regs to pass 150mph). FromCa Conversions, box including $ 2500.00 6 speed wire harness kit with tap shift ( manuel mode) $ 295.00 throttle position sensor kit $ 500.00 2 line indicator PRNDM/123456, should be arriving next week.
If SFI is not required then Summit has a motor plate with non SFI flexplate
for (as of 3/19 ) $995.99.

the info although does not help me as I already took the leap it will help the next person that used my build as reference for there Allison conversion. A stock Allison would be fine (and I was going to run the 5sp with 6 sp programing had it tested ok) if the HX35W/12 did not cause my TQ # to exceed ~535 TQ (only 44ft lb buffer fron old turbo) seat of the pants says it would have been risky. dyno run will tell the tell.
