BTS 4-12-10
I finally set the date with Brian. We had a good talk and he agrees with me doing this before I start having problems with the Diode. I wanted to do a Monday rebuild so I don't have to be away from the store more days then needed. I will leave here Sunday and spend the night somewhere up there to be at his shop Monday morning. This is me for a Month.

Rick, u will love that transmission!!! I put mine in back in Oct and it has been flawless! Shifts awesome and gets the power to the ground NOW! I had Brian build me one and ship it up to me and i did the install, wasnt too bad. With all the good press BTS gets, i just dont understand why people go to a "reputable" builder close to them and "save" them money and in the long run it costs them a bundle, because those transmissions never last, and the warranties dont even compare to Brians.

I am sure I will love the trans. Brian doesn't charge anything to take the trans off and put it back on. I agree about getting a "rep" place to rebuild your trans and have to do it again sooner then should be. I like the idea that Brian don't care what mods I have, he will warranty it. I'm ready for this.

What i saved was a trip to arkansas to have it done which would have been pretty pricey, fuel, food, lodging. All said and done, i was at $5000, that was including shipping and transcooler and oil. I bought my transcooler used from a junkyard and flushed it before i installed it.

some save on having it shipped, some dont. I chose to drive the 8 hours or so down to get the experience. I only had $200 in fuel towing my truck on a trailer down and back and $120 in lodging.
I would look into getting some tunes to try from Cale. I just put mine in a couple days ago and I can really tell ya i love the power and the shifting is great. Definetly like it more than my prvious custom tuner..
