They have detailed descriptions of everything, and I was just wondering if anyone on this board has dealt with them or know of their quality?? Thanks

From what I remember reading they're not the best transmissions in the world, but they do have a large supply of 4l60-e parts if you have trouble locating something you need.

I had a Raptor Jr. in my 95 Z. It was O.K. It shifted hard but would jump in second gear really bad at light throttle. I called them because I was stationed in Germany and it was still under warranty. I told them what it was doing and the answer I got was "Sounds like something is broken inside." I would look somewhere else.

service sucks on their parts too, not just the transmissions. They got my order wrong and I had a hard time getting anything out of them to make it right.
