Default Ellis rules!

I just wanted to tell anyone that needs tranny work to see him. I stopped by and talked to him and he know an amazing amount! I only wish someone would help pay for the R and R and repair of my transmission!

Yep Ellis is the man.
Nobody else gets near my trannys. I have 9 years of street and racing on his trannys with no problems at all.

I think I might have heard something about that. Can't trust a guy with a racecar to drive a 4WD !!!!! He said you guys had a great time. Would have been fun if we could have brought his car out there.
