Default good trans builders in SE GA??

Is there any good trans builders in SE GA?? around Brunswick or Jesup or Valdosta or somewhere along that area? I built it before , and to my knowledge nothings wrong with it just the clip poped off one of the gears that holds the sunshell or something up, idk, I know what I'm refering to and posted it in the other thread I started in the tranny section but anyways, looking for someone else to fix it, I just dont have the time, but want it done right and not have to worry about it or second guess before I hit the loud pedal

Southern Performance in Lyons (right next to Vidalia), might be a good drive but Mike does seven or eight trans. a week and does a pretty good job. I've never heard any complaints.

No other recommendations that I'd choose over Southern Performance, it's a little shop but it turns out a good bit of performance work. There's a trans. shop in Statesboro that I've known a few guys to take their transmissions to, but I can't think of the name right off hand.

I agree he is really good with building 60e and 80e's. He built a 80e for a buddies Whipple 6.0l truck and it has took a ton of abuse without a single problem. And he is really cool guy stands behind his work.

Mike@ Southern Performance does good work to and is a great guy, just don't have no personal experience with him with 60e and 80e's.

I've got a FLT Level 5 4l65e with precision 3200-3400 stall with less 1000 miles. I would sell. It all does great just know I'm half go with a 4l80 with my next setup. It would be plenty strong for your setup.
