Okay guys, I don't know which. I am wanting top line, bullet proof 4l65E, or at least the best I can get. I like the FLP level 5, but pricy. Second and third are close.... FLT Level 5. He's got a sale going on. I've actually talked to Rock On transmission, cheapest but used parts, at least the 5 pinion planets.
I know its been asked a 100 times.... what do you guys think?

Dave at Rock-On sounds like a real upstanding guy. I went to his shop and visited with him for about an hour and he really sounds like he knows his stuff. Used 5 pinion planetaries can't be too old and usually won't have much if any wear on them. Rock-On has transmissions all over the world and Dave also is a live tech support person on LS1TECH and puts his reputation on the line daily by putting his name on the website every day. That sure puts his reputation out there in the wide open for everyone to see. Read up over there to see what they are saying about his units and any others you are considering.

To bad you were not in San Antonio. I could help then with a local guy. I would follow Red and Bud's advice.

Yep I hab my mine mad up on a Level 5 4L60 from Rock-On, but now since I've read some on FLT they seem to be good builders to, It's kind of a toss up between the two company's but I believe I'm still going to try Dave at ROCK-On cause he is lil cheaper and said he make me good deal on a Precision Stall.

What did the shop look like? Modern? Organized? I agree they come highly recommended and Dave and company CS is outstanding. I just came away from the conversation a little uncomfortable. Got the impression of an old school shop with parts laying everywhere and sorting through them throwing together transmissions with parts that LOOKED okay. There are numerous posts at Tech about the great trans. Mostly by just a couple guys.Originally posted by RedHeartbeat@Jan 11 2006, 08:58 PM
