BTS tranny is here!!

Well I thought I would share the excitement of my new tranny with you guys. I have been having trouble with my transmission since last summer and have limped it along till now. I got a hold of Brian at BTS and got one ordered up. Great guy to talk too! I had it shipped and will be putting it in on the 8th. So there is gonna be a GTG here for it and anything else we can get into trouble with. Along with the tranny a new Tru-Cool tranny cooler is also going in. Here are a couple pics but it wont be in the crate much longer!!

Yeah you gotta love it! It's almost a shame too hide it under the truck but I have a feeling I will get over that in a hurry after I drive it.

Congrats, what type of Torque Conveter is that, ATS? or does Brian have his own secret design. Just curious because I saw that its Purple in color like an ATS.

Dan I guess I am not sure if it is an ATS or not. When I was talking with Brian there was so much info flying out that it was hard to keep track of it all! Somebody that knows for sure may chime in with the answer.
