I got 1 transmission and it was over. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) It is a mostly stock class... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) They also stopped the warrenty on my 01 Tahoe. The transmission blew and they wouldn't replace it! Said something about it being a supercharged 6.0 Liter making 568 ft lbs of torque and 516 hp. For some reason the enigine computer had been tuned aswell. I was shocked! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Where do you park your truck. Do you think that if I left my car there, the "horsepower gnomes" would pay it a visit? I could handle being "shocked" like that. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
