Tranny Decisions

First let me start off by saying, I do not have a car, but help my father in law wrench on his current build, which started its life as a 2011 Mustang V-6. Its being built into a Super Stock, and just so I'm on the same page and know what I'm talking about, I figured I would join a forum, and start picking brains. I'm on a couple other forums, and figured their had to be one for this as well. So on to my questions

-First, is there a FAQ that I cant seem to find?

-I dont know what motor hes going with, but he is building a Cobra jet, because of the engine that originally came in that, so I'm guessing along those same lines..... Whats a good reliable C-4, 4 speed tranny for this set up? He has said two names in particular, Coan which I have found, and torqueflite. I cant find anything on the torqueflite, which seems to be what he wants to go with.

- My father in law doens't do the whole computer thing, so I try and research this stuff, as I'm handy with a wrench, and racing has always interested me anyways. I should add, he already has a top dragster, and this will be his second build. Thanks for the help!
