Where to find OE/ACDelco rebuild kit for 6L80?

Anyone know where I can get a factory rebuild kit for a 6L80 or what aftermarket brand is closest in quality? If those aren't available are the Exedy full rebuild kits any good? Those seem to be the closest match I can find and Circle D is overkill and overpriced for my purposes.

Check through here. I have purchased parts for my 6L80 when I had issues. Top quality items.

The 6L80E in the Camaro SS', Chevy SS', Corvette C6's (and 2014 C7's), and other GM passenger vehicle platforms, tended to not have transmission cooler bypass setup abilities, like the trucks and SUV's, right?

Is it just the way that the 5th gen Camaro V8 automatic models, for example, are setup with their factory radiator and built-in trans cooler unit? I see a lot of trucks and SUV's struggling with their GM 6AT's, and I've seen the 6L80 trans cooler bypass, as a common/popular upgrade and preventative maintenance.

Not sure about all that. All I know is with my 4500 stall converter I do run an Earl's aftermarket trans cooler, and it is in line with the stock cooler through the radiator. No issues to date. The way I see things is every auto trans can benefit from additional cooling. Especially a truck that will be towing something, and performance cars.
