Well I am going by the word of people who know Gil personally and I know have built tranny's that withstand 600 horse + cars. I am not saying that performance wise the Transgo kit won't make the tranny shift sweet cause I noticed a nice improvement in that department, I am also not stating that all of the components in the kit will cause damage in the long run and I am not even saying it will kill your tranny instantly. What I am saying is after doing my own research and talking with people who build strong units that the Transgo kit is not the way to go if you want to get as many miles as possible out of your tranny.

Also incase your referring to me as not having the right tools or not knowing what the hell I am doing. Anyone who has been in my garage including a member from this site knows I have damn near every tool in there. I am no shade tree mechanic and have built /rebuilt many trannys and engines in my over 10 years of working on cars. So while I am not a transmission specialist, I do know when someone knows what they are talking about and is making sense in there reasoning.
