>>>Any good Socal Trans. shops around?<<<
 
Hello Everyone,

I'm a newbie on transmissions, I'm not going to lie. My car is a pretty stock 1998 Z28.(SS clone) It has bolt-ons and 120,000 miles on it. My problem is when I jump on the freeway the transmission starts to act up whenever I try to go over 60 mph. I hit the gas to pass a car and the rpm's redline and the car doesn't speed up or shift. I just hear the roar of the GMMG and thats it. :bang: Driving around town is ok when I keep it under 45 mph. The shifts are ok, but not firm. The fluid is at level, but it looks alittle dirty, not the good looking red, but alittle brown mixed in. I got the transmission drained & checked not to long ago at AAMCO.(maybe a year ago or more) They told me the fluid looked good and there was no metal in the pan. I want to see if any of you know of a good Performance transmission shop in Socal. I live in the San Fernando Valley. Any help would really help. I think I'm in deep %#*@! :( Please let me know what you got done by the shop & how its holding up to the power your making. Did you get a rebuild or did you get a new one installed? Thanks again!

The guy I bought my LT1 from had the tranny rebuilt at a place called the Toy Shop in Pomona and the tranny is pretty damn strong now, I'll get ahold of him and see if I can help you out.

Does anyone have anymore information on the Toy Shop in Pomona or Mike's Transmission in Lancaster? If they have worked on your car or a friends, how was their work & do they have fair prices? Thanks for reading this and for any help.
