I put a monster trans e40d in my e350 work van over 2 years ago and its still going strong! Had a solenoid failure a few months after it went in but they sent me a replacement solenoid block without a hassle. It hauls about 2000 lbs. of equipment and tows a backhoe full time, i don't take it easy on the old girl either lol
Now, would I use one in the race truck? hell no! I would highly recommend FLT, leave the monster trans for the low hp beaters and work trucks! lol

But in all fairness, your site set up and whoever worded your listings should be sent to a retraining facility. If (and only if) your products are as good as you say they are, should you consider revising your numbers on your listings to be more accurate as to what a quality transmission can handle. Just keep in mind a stock GM 60E (~$1800) can take >350 crank HP and comes with a long GM warranty.
Of course, if you wanted to void warranties because certain customers used their transmissions in manners that exceeded your posted design specs, by all means keep the numbers low.

Well, at least I provoked a response.

I have encouraged them to come back and at least discuss there product.

I've personally been down the whole famous guys car and tv show transmission mumble jumble bs. Its advertising and in most all cases those units are being built at cost or given for free. This is an open forum and you are going to get peoples opinions good and bad. I have probably at one time had just about every "famous" trans builders unit on my bench. Some I see were well built and other I will say were well marketed. Thats all I'm going to add to this thread. Best of luck. Vince
