Sorry i cant give you a long term report on my FLT lv. 4 trans but one thing i can say for sure is that when everybody gave up on me on trying to fix my tranny problem chuck was the only one who went way out of his way to find the problem. They really stand behind their product and their customers, i would recommend them to anybody.

I think at the power leval you want and the usage level your planning an FLT will fit your needs perfectly. I did 150 passes this year at 700+RWHP and mine is still running very strong. I plan to freshen so I can go another 150 trouble free next year but could confidently carry on as is if I wasnt such a frequent racer. I have 6 months of snow so preventative maintenece is a good thing for me.

For the usage you have planned the LVL5 should provide you with years of trouble free service.

Hope that helps.

I love mine. Buttery smooth with toasty crispness! It even ran dry of fluid driving down the highway when my cooler busted and its still as good as ever.
