Who would've thought a badass circle-d tranny would break behind a little cammed 4.8



My thoughts on the matter, it should've never broke in the first place, and there was a defect in the tranny to begin with. I know anything can happen, especially in high performance applications, but I know my tranny has seen way more abuse than this one did, and is still kickin just fine.

Royce I really hope circle-d makes things right for ya. They have badass converters, but my opinion of their transmissions isn't so great after this.
