Pay $700 in shipping or have multiple issues with a suncoast trans
I could never keep a suncoast converter in my truck they didn’t last longDid suncoast get bought out or something? I see years and years of positive reviews now you guys say they are junk
Only trouble I have ever had with suncoast is parts availability. Not saying there's not some issues here and there but suncoast is far from junk.

Never had a problem with suncoast. Actually I ran an off the shelf unit (basic build) at over 1000WHP for quite a while before finally losing the c1s. Got at least 30 4x4 launches and over 100 wot pulls. As for converters, the 7 series is great, 1078 is a vgt dream converter, couples hard but also allows a high flash to get spooled. I rebuilt that trans with a kit from Limitless Diesel (Inglewood) and used a goerend J converter this time around (as I increased charger sizes) and it’s held strong for 15,000 miles with WOT runs nearly everyday. This is one I put together myself with help from Evan. Couldn’t be happier with how it performs and how it’s lasted.
Well for price vs quality I am going to go with inglewood they seem to be the cheapest even if I drove to pick up a suncoast. Just need to figure out if it's indeed the Trans and the shipping cause he only ships to commercial addresses so idk what I am gonna do there
You literally cannot go wrong with Inglewood. Mike and Evan are arguably two of the most knowledgeable guys when it comes to Allison transmissions.
I personally think they are but as a vendor I try to stay neutral to not ruffle any feathers
Good point.
But other than the original owner at Suncoast (RIP), there arent any people more knowledgable than Mike and Evan on the Allison. Period.
