Default Dimpled bushing?

Is this bushing any better than the standard bronze or babbit variety?

http://www.transmissionpartsusa.com/...-00053626c.htm

Im gonna order one of each type, so I'll have a bronze, a babbit and a dimpled one on hand for my rebuild. I just don't know which one is best. Looking for longevity above all else.

Thanks,
Ivan

What year is your truck so I can move this to the appropriate sub-section?

Sorry, I would have posted it in the proper sub-forum but I thought it went here since the question might be applicable across several generations. It's a '93 transmission.

Dimples
The two bushings are slightly different I.D.s
If you have a Transgo kit get the phone number and call the Tech line or send them an e-mail
There are also several different pumps so mic yours first
I remember the last 998 I built I did something special with the bushing but do not remember what
