Found a place in Bell Gardens "Performance Transmissions" for 220$ w/fluids, or about 400 w/o fluids.. Anyone have any experience with them? Or any other recommendations?? Anyone?? Well, hope this helps. Or there is always GTM or Corner 3 garage..

Give Seb at Specialty-Z a call. They are over in Chatsworth and their site is specialtyz.com.

^ I've called specialty z before regarding a transgo install. They said they don't do them cause it's a PITA.

Corner3 does it for like $820 out the door. Includes the trango kit, fluids, tax, labor. Only reason I haven't done it yet is because they require the car for 1-2 days.

You should"ve spoke to Pollo last night..he may be able to get it done on a weekend..he may even let you spend the night at the shop.

Hahaha. It never occured to me to ask him...has he ever done a transgo install before? I wouldn't mind spending the whole day there if I have to, if he could do it in one day.

Just a little history...Pollo was the head mechanic at a Tranny only shop in El Segundo for more than 10 years.

^ Yeah, i remember you recommending them to me before in the past, but when I called them, they said they don't do them anymore . I'd say i called them about 6 weeks ago.

James, I'll be going back to R&J in a couple days to pick up some parts i left to be painted, and so they can work on my sides. I'll talk to Pollo about installing the transgo, thanks!
