Beware of transmission builder in Dallas.
His name is Mike Long and he is a liar and a thief. I just tore my broken trans apart after it didnt even last a year. I dont know how many miles are on it but they werent much. He told me it would hold 500 hp easy with no problem. Well since it broke the week after he rebuilt it from me drag racing and I know there should be no warranty for race transmissions but my car only had bolt ons and it should have lasted longer. So I havent beat on it or drag raced it since it broke last year at Denton after only 3 runs. All I have done is drive normal and all of a sudden it started acting weird. Anyway I had a guy tear it apart and the only performance part in it was The Beast Sun Shell and Transgo shift kit. I have a list of parts that he said he put in it and it was all a lie. All parts he replaced are stock pieces. He charged me over 1500 bucks and I bet he only spent 100 dollars in parts. And his number he gave me is disconnected probably cause he screwed too many people over.
Stay away from this guy he is a scammer!!!!!

Try and get my money back? I doubt that he would do that plus I dont live there anymore and finding him would be tough. He will get whats coming to him someday. Someday he is going to scam the wrong person and wind up in the hospital or dead.

I should have listened. At the time I didnt have alot of money to spend. With all the money I spent between that junk converter he sold me and the trans money I could have bought a decent trans with a warranty.

Mike Long is a douche bag. Sam saw the trans I had him build me in action one night. Not even 500 miles on it, and it wouldn't shift half the time. Then, he wouldn't help me out with it what so ever. Last I heard he was out of business

I'm just saying if someone scammed me like this, I would get SOMETHING out of him SOMEHOW. I guess I don't take things of the sort as lightly.

Glad to hear that he went out of business but sorry about what happened to you.
