Default t-56 help

its time for rebuild and I was wondering if there is a good shop some of you may have used within Central Fla. Symtoms are everything seems ok shifting wise until your in it(throttle).at full throttle it doesn't go into gear as quickly as it did. Clutch seems to be ok doesn't stick or anything...car is def. slower to shift and not smooth

I used Lamotta in Longwood and am pretty happy with it. I pulled the tranny and brought it to him. He had it apart in about 10 minutes and told me all I needed. Cost me a little over $550 with some upgrades. I was put in touch with him by 2 other happy costumers.

I couldnt afford a monster build, so this worked out great for me. I also put in a new adjustable master, new slave and an LS1 clutch at the same time. I would highly recommend this if you have it out anyway.
