    RULE #7 - Members must have at least 3 nominations to be selected for the contest... etc....

     

    I took this over from holty earlier this year... he was too busy for work, and it takes a couple of hours do post this up, so not a quick process, plus waiting for write ups, resizing pics, etc... time consuming.

     

    I did it a couple of times but i tried to do this last month, and I got a total of 4 nominations, no one was nominated twice.... see above rule... and i had nominations opened for a week... after little interest, i posted a question in the mod board of what i should do... and that there was little response...

     

    everyone decided to let it go, as interest has dropped...

  23. What I've Been Up To Lately

    your bike is looking real sharp... i love the rear pipes big time. Have you ever thought about getting your primary cover powder coated or get an open belt drive... you can get a really nice one - 3" on Ebay for around $1200 and it would really set the bike off... plus the inner primary cover you could get powder coated black...

    pete - i have the SF XD .45 with the 4" barrel... i got a deal on it from Turners, it came with an Insight weapons light, which is badass... i just got the weapon last month...

     

    I have the X300 surefire lights for my other guns, but the insight rocks and truth be told has a better switch.

     

    pete we should get together sometime and go to the range...

  25. Another Trans Bites The Dust

    in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech

    Posted

    i havent been around much lately, life has me busy...

     

    anyways... i blew my stock transmission - broke the output shaft...

     

    Ordered the 4l65 built unit from performabuilt... they sold it to me with a 3000 stall which was WAAAY too loose (not their fault, i asked for this size stall) so they sent me FREE of charge a new stall... and THEY paid for the new one to go back. (I paid for the R&R)

     

    i put about 3000 miles on it and then went and had the truck dyno tuned when i add the long tubes... 3 days after the tune, BOOM... tranny blew. They immediately sent me another transmission within a couple of days... FREE of charge and no shipping... and let me keep a spare TC to help offset the R&R charges...

     

    when the new one was installed... it lasted less than 300 miles... it blew when i was driving IN TRAFFIC in the RAIN... going down hill, so there wasnt any load on the tranny... i then suspected a faulty tune, and bingo... i had my tune looked at by a couple of different tuners and sure enough my tune was all fubared... nonetheless Frank knew i was fustrated and wanted to help, he also knew i was building a new powerplant and he said we should throw an 80e at it... i paid for the performance upgrades from CK performance, but they swapped out my 65e for a fully built 80e with a new TC, shipped it to me at no cost....

     

    the above is purely a statement of the facts, and there isnt any personal judgment or advice either way, take it how you see it. I cant say if any other transmission shop would have gone out of their way like performabuilt as i have not dealt with anyone else. I know a lot of people like Dannys transmissions, FLT, and others.... all have great reputations.

     

    at the end of the day, the choice is up to you... i have only stated my story for the record. But for customer service PB has more than exceeded my customer service expectations :thumbs:
