Ok guys and girls I need some info on Trans King out of Galveston TX. Ive got to get my C6 built and heard about them thru Strickly Performance in Houston. Anybody had any dealings with them and if so what did they do for you, good or bad work. Thanks...

Hey Crewz, I've heard good and bad about Trans King. (Like most machine shops or machanic shops). But have heard more good than bad. Buy a converter from Trans King, they will losen or tighten it to your needs. They are local and easy to get a turn around usually. Heard pros and cons on that sometimes. It would be one of the local shops I would consider buying parts or having them build a tranny for me. Another option a little closer to you is Exner Transmissions. Steve Exner is a Ford nut and builds racing transmissions. We've been talking to him about build a glide for my buddy's 90 GT (8 sec. ride). His price is cheaper and get more info. on the parts actually being put in the tranny. Not BS on Top Secret crap. Price is straight forward. I would call him first and maybe consider buying a Trans King converter. His number is (713)473-0199. He helps sponsor the Garner and Exner big block Super comp dragster. Rob

Man working those kinda hours suck, I know bout that too. The good news is the money, wow, builds up quick does'nt it. The only thing that sucks is when your makin those kinda hours the gov sure takes alot out for the lazy m/f's out there.

Cad, the Houston one is usually in the first part of May, I think. I'll check the calender for 02 on that on for sure. Later....
