im on the lvl 2 performabuilt and got the go-ahead from frank to install a 2 step and transbrake on my transmission. this is with a 200 shot out of the hole with a heads/cam full bolt on LS1.

at this point, i dont feel limited by power, and im on the weaker transmission that they make.

Thanks Guys,

What is a fair price to expect a shop to do the install? It's a 4x4 and I have no resources to do it myself.

I am local to Atlanta, if you need help with the trans or install let me know via PM. Between the two I would go FLT, but that is pure speculation based on what I have read and seen on the internet...

Thanks, I may take you up on it. I work for Anheuser-Busch, maybe I can compensate or make the celebration fun.

I called the shop and they want it back. They want to do a complete tear down. I'm gonna let them with a stipulation for a 12 month no milage warranty and if it is not right they refund me in full durring the term.

I got a burnt 3-4 on an only car daily driver and a **** absentee policy where I work.

Now, everyone will want to help.
Not being able to wait would be less of a problem than a 5x comeback. As to the ethical thing to do. I think it falls to them; if a person feels they've done nothing wrong. And it doesn't sound like u did here. Sounds like they're goin to do the right thing.
