Twisted Diesel trans?
Anyone have any experiences with this company? I'm looking into buying their stage 2 4r100 trans. Does anyone know anything about that trans?

Is this tranny from Empire Diesel Performance in Dubuque, IA?

For what it's worth EDP has a stellar reputation.

Hopefully someone with one of these transmissions will chime in.

Is it a significant cost savings over BTS or John Wood? I just dont understand why anyone would look anywhere else?

I've heard good things about Twisted trans on other sites, guys using them pulling & racing them. Good guys & stand behind their products from what I've seen, but I have no 1st hand knowledge.

2 years vs lifetime........ I guess it depends on how long you plan on keeping the truck. Hell, my trans will be almost 2 years old by the time I get back from this deployment and I only have about 5000 miles on my new JW trans. Unique situation, I know, but two years in my world isnt very long.
