Default Need A Good Trans Shop!
Im looking for a place that can install my shift kit on my 4L60E and that has done it before. I need someone that can do a really good job that has experience in installing these kits, especially on a C5. I dont wanna go somewhere and have my trans fry up a week later. Any recommendations will help, thnx.

Ive talked to the Toy Shop before but they dont do shift kits, at least thats what they told me. They will either re-do the valve body or full rebuild. Rebuild is in future plans, just need a "band-aid" right now.
