Default Performabuilt Level 2 4L60e Testimonials

Ok guys I think I got myself talked into a level 2 Performabuilt 4L60e for my LS swap. If your running the level 2 4L60e chime in and let me know what your opinions are on the trans good or bad. I'm especially interested in knowing If anyone has pushed the 700HP claim. Please list the vehicle and estimated HP #s or dyno #s and time slips if you got them. Video's are even better

In 2008 I installed the PB lvl 2 behind my 414 and it is still going strong.
It's been a couple years since I dynoed but back then with small Patriot
heads, Fast 90/90 and 1-3/4 lt's it made 530 to the wheels. Ran 10.82
on that setup and was running out of fuel. Stock pump then. I've made
changes to get more air in and out since then don't have any updated info
but I am pleased with the trans.

I also had a performabuilt lvl 2. I was very pleased with it as well. The shifts were crisp and quick. I ended up selling that car. 2 months after getting a lvl 2.

My Performabuilt.com Level 2 just came in ups. I also ordered an FTI 9.5 billet stall with 4000 stall speed from them to get the 2 year warranty.
When work slows down in hope to put it in ASAP.

I have a Performabuilt Level3 on order along with an FTI4000 Hard Hit.

Might be overkill for a head/cam LS2?

It funny cause i went past the shop a couple times due to no sign/advertisement. Its a newer store front type building. I drove around back (ware house type setting ) and saw my trans inside on a pallet. When i meet with alan i asked why no advertisement ? He said hes mainly just does internet sales. Imagine if people knew he was there the business he could bring in. As for the shop it looked clean with aaaalot of tranny parts on shelves/tables ect! Nothing fancy but the right setting to get the job done!!

PerformaBuilt streams live video of the shop that enables you to see what's happening at any given time. Click on the PerformaBuilt link in post #13 above and you'll see the video in the lower right corner of the screen. Click on the video and make it full screen, you'll see the shop at work. Cheers!

By the way - my Level 2 trans from PerformaBuilt is being delivered today. I'm excited!

Was between this and rpm transmission. Picked performabuilt
Their warranty of 1 year with the options of 2 years is the best in the business
