Re: good fellas???

best thing i could tell you is to not buy a 700r4......get a th350.....lots cheaper..lots better trans......with a core i know a trans shop that will trade a rebuilt for like $250......just make sure when u go to mount the torque arm to get it welded or bolted to the trans crossmember

Re: good fellas???

No advertisement but if it sounds to good to be true it probably is, Use your own judgement, We have special now at 1175 on our level one and honestly with shipping we are cut to the bone.
And of note a well built 700 can be a monster, No ad fo them either.

Re: good fellas???

There is a thread about them in the aftermarket vendor forum. It seems that they are the same guys that used to be maddog lou transmissions.

I wouldnt touch them with a ten foot pole.
