Got an 01 f450 4x4 with a beans 6pos in it and a cold air.
The guy I bought it from had an edge in it and I know there known for trashing trannies. Well 3 weeks later it went.

What should I build to make it hold hp and still be able to tow???

John Woods is well known for his tranny work. From what I hear, BTS does a pretty good job as well. JW does have what he calls a "Tow Master" tranny. Good for 450hp, and made to tow.

Drop the coin on a bts and make the last trans purchase you will ever need to. Best mod I have ever done, and my truck is HIGHLY modded

BTS or JW, both are great.

For the money of a jw you can get a bts, I don't know if jw stands behind his trannys like brain does. If you get a bts and it breaks there is NO question that it will be repaired. That alone is worth the cost of the bts.

JW backs his the same as BTS does.

Edge tuners are horrible. I woud not get in a truck that has had one.

My dads tranny went out in under 60K. Never towed anything ever and he dont drive it like a race car. Could have got a lemon but I blame Edge as he had it since 5K miles.

I agree with all previous posts. BTS or JW. Either is a great choice. Or buy a 6 speed! :D
