From what I can tell, the converter and transmission shops are completely seperate. I may be wrong, but they do have different addresses.

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.
scott, im going to go up there later this week and see what they'll do for me. i doubt they'll do anything though...
