this is a joke right

I think i have seen your truck run if so its a sweet truck anyways what i was getting at is mike is most likely the best Ok we get that but why are people asking $1000 or more then he is if they don't have the reputation or a warranty to make it worth it and as well know as a tuner like rob is there shouldn't be a question of a tune iusse. I'm in that boat ill never make more power then a stock bottom end will hold just a daily driver that tows my race car and I'd like to be able to take the truck to a pull or two and make a few passes at the strip

What's the definition of a warranty? Almost any company has a "workmanship" or "mistake" warranty??? A well built trans like Mike L does will not fail from "too much hp" but bad tuning can kill one in 2 weeks... So for someone to only give full warranty with their own tuning kind of makes sense.

If u buy a full built Mike L and burn clutch plates out in a few months he's probably gonna tear it apart and say you are paying for parts and cleaning because of no de-fuel or poor tuning... But that's just my guess, maybe he can eat what few of those he would get???


On a side note, I deal with and sell Goerend parts and he isn't building full transmissions in house. He showed me a few things and I am by no means an expert, but last Allison 5 speed Goerend did in and out and build was $5200 someone I know bought without billet shafts, with as close to a "NO QUESTIONS ASKED" warranty as there gets to be...

Mike L is the best bang for the buck you can get IMHO but $1000 is a lot of money to some people who will never make over 500hp or over what a stock bottom end can take.

Would you drive out to Mikes place in California or ship your trans out there and have him build it on the bench? There is no doubt that Mike builds a great trans, you cannot go wrong with him at all.

You could try this guy, http://knudsontransmission.com/recreationaltowing.html
I go by his shop all the time and he has a nice LBZ out side all the time ....

Mike L is a great transmission builder. And since you have already said he is cheaper and better to deal with why are you wasting everyone's time by whining about everyone else. Make the drive out to him and get it done right the first time.

Problem solved.

Thank you.
Never thought you would post something like this.

Or you could save $17.38 and go to Per4mance Innovations. :spit:


Then again, if you just want the best go to Mike L.

Bahahahaha...

I'm pretty sure Brandon gave up, or at least I hope so. He is a used car dealer now, I pass his shop everyday and it hasn't had a Duramax out front in a year or so. Just old clunkers he fixes up and resales...

 

[slowlb7]

I just called a shop here in Iowa and they want to put a tighter then stock stall and clutches in no transgo kit nothing else they say stock line pressure is fine is this true?

 

[Potthoffdmax]

Call Mike L THATS IT!!!!!!

 

[JoshH]

No

 

[slowlb7]

That's what i though i got a good laugh out of talking to that Shop. Well that's pretty much it for shops around here and i dis like them all i guess its mike or build it my self which may not be any good

 

[Mike L.]

The key to a performance trans is pressure first and extra clutches second.

I would skip that place for sure.

I nicely told them i would think it over and got off the phone :roflmao: i asked them about the transgo kit and they said it hurt the tranny. I asked about the the pressure drop when the converter locks they said a better converter helps i never heard that one before
