i can see this subject isn't new but i am asking anyways.
so far flp has told me they will send me a crate, i send them my tranny and i will have it back it about 2 weeks, guy seemed real nice, 90 day warenty(probably longer)
speed inc says they have cores in stock so i wont be without a tranny, 6month warenty, they say their trannys are better because they use better parts. they also list the parts on their web site http://www.ls1speed.com/catagory.cfm...ission%20Parts
anyone have any more info to add?
i am around 400rwhp now but i can imagine 500-550rwhp someday.

Ill put it to you this way. I have had both. I broke the FLP tranny and they couldnt figure out why, so they tried to charge me. I switched to a speed inc tranny. I have a friend that broke a Speed Inc tranny and it WAS his fault because he wasnt watching the tranny temp and ran a small trans cooler. Speed Inc knew this and STILL warrantied it.

i didn't ask flp about their warranty but i did ask speed inc and they said they would fix it no matter what i did to it except for overheating it. i asked the guy if i threw 1000hp at it and blew it up would they fix it and he said yes. they also have a prety fast company car http://www.ls1speed.com/som.cfm not sure if the 4l60e will hold up to 16psi of boost though, if it will run 10.7 with 8psi i would think 16psi would be in the 9's.
