I wipped my stock 4l60e in my 95 Camaro. I was eyeballing the stage 2 from speed, the price is right but i havent been hearing much good about them. I only see one option from flp. I know there are many other sources but just wanted to get a few opinions, thanks

 

i have had speed inc's stage 3 behind my turbo for about 3 months now. not a single problem whatsoever...

 

my speed inc stage 3 lasted 7 months and only has a 6 month warranty the first 6 and 1/2 months my car was na had the blower in for 2 weeks and burned 3-4 clutches.

 

We pulled out my Speed Inc unit after 3000 miles (about 1.5 years old) and it was trash. 3-4 clutch packs burned like hell, band was cracked & lining burned, clearances were sloppy, also there was a soleniod issue somewhere messing up my downshifts. This trans was never run down the track, and the fluid temp never went above 185*. This was all with the setup in my sig...

My new FLP unit is WORLDS better in every way. I can't beleive how much better it shifts even compared to how the Speed Inc one did when new.

In Speed Inc's defense though, they no longer use the supplier than my trans came from. They use Extreme Automatics in OH now, my unit came from their old guy in Louisville, KY.

Speed is a great shop, I like them very much. I think they made a big mistake with their first supplier from Louisville, but from what I've seen & heard their new units from Extreme are much better.

FLP is also a great shop and I like them a ton also, but what's better about going the FLP route is that you can talk right to the guy who's actually building your trans and go over everything with him.

Jason, you should have come down there with me to check out FLPs shop when my new trans went in.

Both FLP and Speed are great shops, they've both been good to me

 

mine was from extreme. I'm going through it right now with a tci rebuild kit from summit and tci has 1 more 3-4 clutch (9) and all of the springs are stiffer.

 

mine is from extreme as well and has always shifted firm, but not too hard.

a4z28...the stage 3 trans comes with a 10clutch 3-4...one more than what youre going to now...

 

only 8 came out. i ordered and paid for a stage 3. maybe they shipped the wrong one

 

Rossler's trans has been a flawless performer in the quarter. And Carl answers the phone for any questions.

HE knows his 4L60Es!

SC-

 

That sucks that speed inc doesnt sell FLPs trans. Im gonna order one and have Speed Inc install it with my new motor, 12 bolt, and DP system. Can wait to see their faces when I show up with a FLP trans.

 

i have a stock one. wonder how much im loosing.

 

Just wait Roy....gonna go bye bye cutting those 60's....

 

please give us a call,that usually helps when you have a problem.

We can take care of the trans for you under warranty. 1 month is no big deal

thanks

Larry

That was super nice of Larry not everyone will do that.

 

mine is gone with a 1.65 60' only he must have a low str on his verter that will save a tranny -
i have reverse and 1st only my crappy 11.80 oh well and my rearend bit the dust with only 4 pases on my new strange 3:73's {10bolt} so it was a exspensive run lol
