Default Re: Recommend a Transmission Vendor (Ford)

I got a push in case and had a local trans shop rebuild it with the internals of the TCI. The issue is broken front pump seals under load. I have gone through about three of them and the car has never made a solid run down the track. The bell housing is an SFI unit that has been machined so that fit isn't the issue.

Short version: I'm ready to call it quits and order a new trans before it starts snowing or something stupid like that. Any recommendations for a good trans vendor? Performance Automatic and Hughes are on my look list.

The car was built with GT/MA in mind, but it will have to be a streetable bracket racer until I can afford a trailer and better truck.

In order of preference, the list is as follows:

1. Joel's In Joy
2. Broader Performance
3. Performance Automatic
4. Dynamic Racing
