How R FLT Level 4 transmissions?

No cons, all pros. I had one for 2 years on my track car with countless nitrous pushes.
Finaly got it refreshed (started slipping a bit under juice) to a Level 5 and all I can say, is Chuck and Vince are top notch. They are professionals all the way and beyond.

I had an FLP Level IV that I bought back in '03 (before there was FLT, still built by Chuck though).
That trans was great. It saw WOT action from the day I bought the trans till the day I sold the car (over a year later). Fantastic shifts, firm & fast, accurate, tight. Not a single problem with this trans.
If I need another 4L60E in the future I would go back to FLP/FLT without question. I'd highly recommend this trans to anyone!

I made the mistake of going with a cheaper trans before my FLP/T unit. I learned the hard way, that you really do get what you pay for.

i went through them when they were still FLP. i just talked to chuck the other day. i did have a problem with something, not sure if it was the TC, something inside the trans, or someone was saying the pump, but im sending it back to get checked out by them, maybe a refresh. either way they're great guys to deal with

Other builders on other forums will tout their transmissions and put down FLT for using the vacuum mod but I don't think I've seen anyone actually able to pinpoint a failure to be caused by it. They make a good product and fully test their units before sending them out.
