Good luck with yours man. 
Finally ordered my FLP 4L65 today
Finally ordered my FLP 4L65 today After 86,000+ miles and better than 100 track passes, the A4 just couldn't hold between shifts anymore. And from all the failed home rebuild stories I've read, I didn't want to waste money doing it more than once. So I called up FLP and talked to Phil. He was very helpful and answered all my questions. Since I run on the bottle, I went with the Level 5 4L65E for peace of mind. So hopefully, within 3-4 weeks, I'll be installing my last transmission. Wish me luck 
Thanks Phil.

Yeah, Next time I head that way, I'll shoot ya a PM.
I'm trying to sell my TCI streetfighter now. I thought about a PY3600E, but I'm leaning more toward a TCI Competition 3800 instead. I gotta have it here and ready to go by the time the tranny shows up either way.
You should bring your car and TC over some time and I'll help ya swap it out. With 2 people, I doubt it would take 3 hours.

A little off topic, but how does it shift on the street during normal driving? My tranny has 59k on it and over 200 passes at the track. I am just preparing for when it does go. It hasn't slipped yet, but I'm sure it won't take much more for it to happen.

Verdad Gallardo Right now it shifts perfectly normal on the street. A week before taking it to the track, It was barking the tires on the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. I've put a few hundred miles on the tranny since then and it still drives perfectly normal. I just havent done any WOT blasts with it since then. I'm gonna baby it for 2 1/2 more weeks.

I thought it was a 3200 stall, but the part# calls up a 3000 stall.
I'm ordering a TCI Competition 3800 this friday.

Q from MIspeed has a good tranny guy here in GR that will do it for $50 but I have to bring him just the tranny because I guess he won't do it with the trans in the car, so it might be a whole weekend project with stall, cooler, shift kit and temp gauge.

Damn, that is a very tempting offer! I guess the main thing is to see if your friend would have time for the shift kit install. I just ordered one from Pro Built Automatics today so it should be here shortly, the only other thing I want to get is a trans temp. gauge, but i'm not shure what one to get... Do you use one??
I don't currently have one. But If I can find a place to put it that looks halfway decent, I might get one. My triple gauge pod is already full. Just off what I could read from my HP Tuners, it reads around 165-171 deg F. I do run a B&M 24k trans cooler though for cheap insurance.
Yes, it should work. The main difference between the 60 and 65 is that the 65 has 5 pinion planetaries, and the 60 only had 4. Everything else is pretty much the same.
