Which built trany?
Hey guys.. i think my tranny is starting to slip Id like to see my options as far as getting a better tranny. Do the built trannies you guys get come with a shift kit already installed? and what is about the best deal i can get? Or is it cost effective to have my rebuilt? just wondering my options. I tow a trailer to work and plan to have around 500 hp by the time i complete my intercooler setup. Thanks guys, Drew

FLP all they way. chuck will take care of you.
i called a couple of local shops and their prices were $1500plus, this included a few high performance parts but they had no expertise in building performance 4l60e's. got a fully loaded level 4 with shift kit, billet survo, 5 pinion planataries and a truely unconditional(other then overheating) warenty, he wanted me to try and blow it up and i did
. they were having a sale at the time for $2000. normal price for thier loaded up unit is $2400.

bigguy .. if you decide to get one built, don't come to Marshall to get it done. I had mine done at East TX tranny's there at the loop and 59. 1st one grenaded itself cause he thought it was kewl to bark the tires on the 1-2 shift at 1/4 throttle. 2nd one started slipping, he said nothin was wrong with it. I traded it off later to find out the dealership ended up replacing the whole damn thing cause they couldn't figure out what the deal was.
I plan on going with FLP when I get the funds. I'm waiting on that, then I wanna line em up and smoke ya!

yay no third gear. i asked him to take out the shift kit and put it back stock. he said i would have to buy a new valve body assembly and a new seperater plate.300.00 dollars. from what 9i have heard you dont have to modify the valve body just the seperater plates.

i ordered the same one parish8 had and it was right around $2300.
