for that much money you can get a built tranny that could handle 500 horsepower.. |

he can tone down the shifting style of a built tranny..and he would have a killer tranny that could handle alot more than a stock one for the same price..just stronger internals.. |

I had a quote from my regular mechanic in the same ballpark but went with Aamco being that they specialize in transmissions, the price does include a 3 year 36,000 warranty. I don't mind spending the money as long as it doesn't give me any problems, I'm planning on keeping it for quit a bit longer, kind of hard to get rid of a car you have had for 27 years, this was my first new car at the age of 20.

First tranny in it, not bad if it gave u 26 years of service. How hard would it be to fit a 700r4 to a sixer? |
