Default DFW Area Members, Jake's Performance Updates

Hey Guys/Gals,

I rarely get out of the transmission section but I wanted to come in this section and post some DFW area specific updates.

We're expanding our operation and looking to move to a larger shop in the very near future.
We have added 4L60E's to our lineup. I MUCH prefer to build these units for local customers.
So please consider us for your 4L60E builds. I know Gilbert at ACE Racing does some of these in the metroplex but now we are offering another option.
This includes "stock" rebuilds for your truck applications.

Also check out our TH350, TH400s, and Powerglides.

We will also be doing other units as well. Ford 4R70W, AOD's, C4's, C6's, Mopar 904s and 727s as well as the OD units.

I will be doing some custom engine builds again as well once we move into the bigger shop.

We'll be doing some general repair work, tuning, performance work, etc. So consider us for your high quality automotive work.

We will be visiting the local tracks and get togethers talking to enthusiasts and checking out your cars so we can get a better idea of what you may need.


Feel free to give us a call if you have any performance related questions.

You guys should build me a 4L80/Converter combo for my Supra that won't brake with 1600-1700 crank hp

I don't think 1600-1700 will be a problem in a turbo'd combo. We have them at 1400-1500 in heavier vehicles. My only real concern is the OD carrier which we are working on.

Wow, saw this thread and scrolled back up to make sure I was looking in the right section lol. Never thought I'd see you in here.

Like Jake mentioned in the above post, we have a few new custom parts in development right now that will take our 4L80Es to a whole new level.

Definitely We had a customer send us a video not too long ago of his car on the dyno, made somewhere in the mid 1300's at the wheels if I remember right, and he broke is Fab 9" rear end but the trans wasn't even fazed.

It's a done deal guys,
we're moving into an almost 11,000 sq/ft facility.

Since we're close to the Sanger track, I'm thinking of having some get togethers at the shop fairly frequently.

Getting more and more interested in the 80's! If I can get the bucking to go away with this big cam I'll go for an 80 with a lockup! If not, th400 it is!
