Talking Thanks to ARD in Houston

I'd like to say thanks to Advanced Racing Dynamics in Houston for the Stage 1 rebuild on my 4l60E. Great service, price, and time to complete. The trans works great.

Thanks again,

KR

ARD built a stage III 4L60E for me in my 2001 Z28 last year and its still going strong. ARD/Owen = first class guy, top notch service, very good prices.

Just spoke with Owen at ARD. He had my Yank SS3200 2.1 str, restalled to a 3600 2.5 str. ARD is looking real good right about now in my book.

I hope my Stage 3 ARD trans lasts and holds up to being called 750hp capable even though i'm only making half that power to the ground right now lol. So far so good.

I have my 1992 camaro up there getting a LS1 swap and turbo350 trans, ARD was the only shop in houston that gave me a reasonable quote. I would recommend anybody in houston to Owen's shop since he works on so many different vehicles

ARD = a good shop that stands behind their work and really takes care of you. Owen is working on my stage 2 heads right now, cant wait for them just a few more weeks
