I was set on getting the level 3 but since you guys are running a lot more power than I would even with a blower it seems the level 2 would be plenty sufficient not to mention cheaper...

The only reason to run the lvl3 for me would have been if i planed hard launches on slicks/or 4wd launches..

Can you get the Level 2 with 5 pinion planetaries? I dont see the sense in running 4 pinions. Didnt see 5 pinions in the description.

Both have great reputations around here, but I went with FLT and have been in the process of paying off my Level7 for quite some time now. Andy and Vince have been great to deal with, and have been very patient with my situation and how long it's taking me to get this bad boy payed off. You could call Andy and ask if they're still offering the Bud/blu plan that Tom (fastnblu) and myself are using to pay our trannys off with.

I talked to PerformaBuilt Today for a little info., Nice Guy.

He reccomended the LVL 3 in my truck ( getting cammed/ KB front mount)

Due to it bieng 4x4. He said if it was a 2 wheel drive the LVL 2 would be sufficent.

I really like both, although I havent purchased from either. Just ended up not being the right move at the time, although would have saved me a ton of money. If I did end up using one, I would use performabuilt. Frank once called me back at around 7pm Central time, I called and hung up, didnt leave a voicemail and he returned it off the caller id apprx 10 minutes later.
