Ya I use to always see them and the vette when I drove by. My buddy takes his 68 velle over there too. As long as they know about 4l60e it should b fine

Yeah, I had them rebuild the 700R4 in my Camaro a few years back. I used that car as a DD and raced it every Saturday it shifted perfectly every time. His brother is a really good racer, that's how I found out about them.

Performabuilt is great if you like getting a transmission back that is weaker than the stock one...

Please elaborate on this as some members may not know why.

Since stalker deleted my post earlier...

Other than looking silly for such a naive comment, do you have any proof of your claim? If your basing it off what I think you are, you are being silly and dumb.

Performabuilt is a good option. Joe (ramair95ta) runs 10s on one, and Adam will be running a lvl2 behind his 450hp engine. My vote would go to Jake's transmission, because they are great guys to deal with and make killer transmissions.

No not just saying that cause Beggs blew a few up. Since coming to Texas, I know 3 people that have bought Level 2 4L60E's from them. All 3 have had either a problem or complete failure within the first month of purchase. All cars had 450hp or less. The company didn't even want to help them and said "If you raced the car, it isn't out problem." Not saying that every single trans they make will break, but between the problems I've seen and the service the customers received, you couldn't pay me to put one in my car if I was auto. Just my .02

Yea, they blatantly say on their website they do not care if you race on em etc.

Which leads me to think that you and your "people with problems" are not divulging the full story.

And to continue the off topic-ness, dudbird... your trans or converter is shot if you make the power you claim and trap so low.

Yea no i know something didnt add up when i went to the track then again i didnt dial in my new set up. But tire pressure to 12 did a ****** burnout and my brakes wouldnt hold at the light. Shoulda done a 4000 stall. Trans shifts real quick n firm at wot. I thought i could be over cammin it makes its power up stairs not so much downstairs. I mean pretty much im content with it now cause i went a whole year without driving it when i redid her. Thats why probally friday im heading back to atco to see wats wrong hopefully

Yea, its not a transbraked car, you just should flash the converter, don't try to footbrake it up.

What kind of 60' are you cutting?

Dudbird113
11-21-2012, 11:02 AM
No transbrake. Yea thats what imma do next time at the track is flashing it. 1.75 or so 60' foot. When i get home from work ill look at my time slip and post it on here
