Default RPM Transmission

Was looking at the RPM level 5 4l60e... Are any of you guys running one? In the market for a good trans and didn't want to have to buy twice. Also looked at Performabuilt & Flt , but don't see many people speaking on them. Dont want a flame war just wanting some of you guys solid facts or info...

I have their level 5 T56 but I am extremely happy with it and they are absolutely amazing people to work with. Just get ahold of Jeremy and he will get you all hooked up.

RPm hands down has the best transmissions and service around. Just look at how many record holders run their transmissions. The worlds fastest 4l60e was built by them. 8.88 at 160 in a c5. Their stuff is built to handle anything you want to throw at it. Excellent guys to deal with

Hands down RPM Transmjssions is 1 of the best companies you can buy from. They have great prices, excellent customer service, and build the most proven transmisskons in the world. Not country. Do it once, buy from rpm and be done with it. You will NOT be dissapointed I promise.

First, I know every shop will have issues from time to time, so, with that said...

Between my GF and me, we have 2 FLT's and one RPM 4L60 and we've had to ship the RPM 4L60 back to RPM twice in 4 years. When the RPM was right, it was an awesome trans though. FWIW
