![]() Street Stuff in Addison. They are experts at it. Go in and ask for Ron. They are on Addison rd. off North Ave. in Addison, IL. Although they are a bit on the pricey side, they do the job right. Other then that, some tranny shops will do it. email me, if you need directions to Street stuff, but if you look up there name, they can help you out. Also there is a guy in Addison, that goes buy the name 21st Century Performance, I think he would do it, nice 1 man shop, but he works slow.

![]() Yeah, I had mine done at Street Stuff, though I would definitely rate them as pricey. They do good work but it's all about the money and they ain't interested if you ain't spendin. I had a bad experience with a $100 oil change there, so I'm definitely biased against them. I'm looking for someone else myself.

![]() ASSC up in Lake Bluff, right on Skokie Hwy. You ever seen Jim Summers' Pro 5.0 car? That's his shop. He does great work, and he's a cool guy, too.

![]() I have to agree that I am not a big fan of Street stuff, I have a friend that goes there for everything. He loves the service. I have never tried any of the other places. Hey the mustang people from the area should all go up to the track some time
