Default Need a transmision rebuilt, who to use in Houston?
Car lost 3rd and 4th on the old A4 Friday night. This is a stock engine with nitrous setup that will occasionally be run at the strip. Anyone have an approximation on the cost and who has a good rep? Any specific parts or tricks I should know about? How about a stall?

Give Circle D Transmissions a call. They are on the north side. They build a very stout 4L60E.

Don't short cut it or you'll be rebuilding it again very soon.
