T-Bag Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Feel free to send me a PM about this. Wheatley helped me get a great deal with Performabuilt. They offered the best deal IMO. 2 year warranty, no core, look at their website and decide. Frank is always helpful when you need him. I've called many times with stupid questions. Again, make sure you get a bell housing and rear tail housing with your trans. since you don't have those now on your core. P.built did not provide for me. Not mad at all, just saying...

Fireman31 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 +1 for PerformaBuilt........FLT has a large following too..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hard to get a warranty as good as Performabuilt offers.Frank does nice work and he gives great backup.He's usually on Yahoo chat till about 3:00 in the morning.Only other company that I know of that are one of the best is RPM.I broke a part in mine and it sent debri all through the trans.It was my fault when I installed it in my C5 and they offered to fix it for nothing knowing it wasn't their fault.I didn't even buy the trans directly from them.I bought it fresh from a friend and they were still going to take care of me.Don't buy the cheapest one.Buy the best and you'll save money when you won't have to buy it again.A lot of guys make big power and then they go to a local trans shop because it was convenient and they didn't want to ship.Big mistake. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their is a member here in central MA that is great with transmissions. I will call and ask him if I can recomend him to you if you would like. He rarely comes on the site anymore. edit-I called him today and he said he will help you out if you'd like. Just PM me and I can give you his number.
