Default Performabuilt Warranty?

Well just got back from my Dyno tune, and my gut feeling was right. My new Performabuilt 4L60e slipping bad in 3rd Trans has about 300 miles on it. Thought it might be a tuning issue I was wrong.

Don't want to bag on Performabuilt mistakes happen, just wondering if any one has ever sent theres in for warranty? How quick was the turn around? Were you satisfied with your trans when you got it back?

Well I guess the only good news today was the LT1 made 406 on motor and 490 on a 100 shot with my slipping trans!

you probably didn't get to fully break it in and you prematurely fried it

It was broke the day I installed it. Thought it might be a tuning problem because I made a few changes to the motor over the winter, it wouldn't shift right. Cruised around with it a little bit couldn't even get on it because it wouldn't shift. Took it in to get tuned. Tune is perfect, trans not shifting and slipping in 3rd
