Would you buy it?
I have a chance to buy a fuddle for a good price. would you do it? I heard a few bad stories and a few good. How long do you think my stock tranny would last with a 3500?

Fuddle is back where they were before. I'll buy the argument that John had health-related issues, and I believe he tried to right as many wrongs as he could.
I will be purchasing mine from him when I'm ready to get one.

I dunno i can get it for a good deal BUT everyone seems to loose mph in the 1/4 and everyone said that his customer service is good and paid to have the stuff fix right and paid for the labor if the converer came apart. My car is a daily driver and i cant afford to have my car down more then once for a converter instal. I dunno tho i am still debating.

well here is the deal. It is a 4000 right now. I would send it back to fuddle and have it restalled to like a 3400 or 3600. so it would be brand new. IF i do get it i would put a shift kit and a big cooler on it. but i am worried about all the bad stories i have heard.

i had my fuddle for over a year and a half with no problems other then its wastes so much gas cause im always flooring it,much more fun to drive now. I daily drive mine and its fine... A few words of advice if you get any converter larger than 3,400 be prepaird to have it tuned to work right and maybe a shift kit also for thoes mushy shifts.
