Default RPM transmissions in indiana?

I am in need of a rebuild and was recomended to use them by a couple local guys here. I dont see them as a sponsor. Has anyone used this shop or have any input? thanks

I've never done business with them but I hear a lot of good things about their transmissions. They are right up there with the best.(FLT, Performabuilt, etc.)

If FLT wouldn't have jumped in and helped me out right away on this site I would have went with RPM for my trans. Either way I'm very happy with the trans from FLT and I'm sure I would have been just as happy RPM. FLT even told me I wouldn't go wrong with RPM if I chose them.

None whatsoever. I've only had since November, have 1,000-1,500 miles on it, and 6 track passes.

I would say if you are looking for a new trans, FLT or RPM would be the place to go. Even performabuilt would work just as good.

Depending where you're at in Ohio, RPM's not that far away so if there were any problems it would be easier to get them resolved I would think.

what caught my interest was a guy on a local board drove to rpm, waited for his to be rebuilt, drove home, and put it back in the car the same day.

Right, and thats why I almost went with RPM, they are less than 2hrs from me. But I was getting a lot of help from FLT and they were having a sale right when my trans went out.

RPM is one of THE premier transmission shops in the country. They are the real deal and know their stuff. Cereal.

Ive had a RPM built T56 (Level V with all the upgrades) since 06, and couldnt be any happier!! One of the BEST companies i have ever dealt with.

I had an issue, and called em up. Without any hesitation, they had another trans to me within days. They paid to ship the second one out, and to return the first trans. Now, more than 4 years later, the trans has been in 2 of our cars, and still works flawlessly!

+1, They did the transmission and differential in my C5, they have both withstood massive abuse and are working great.
