Here is what happens with shady trans. shops !!!

Can someone tell me whats wrong in these pics ??? You can say i got screwed over by the people that had to build my 4L60E MANY times over and over cuz they kept dicking me around . So frank at CPT is setting it the way it is supposed to be with a Pro Race build Frank at CPT FTW !!! My Z28 is a 94 BTW . Whoever guesses the problem here gets a cookie






P.S. There is ALOT more that they screwed me on than just what you see BTW .

I have seen frank post before about the release spings...that probly has something to do with the burnt clutches and piston. I didn't see anything on the pump.....not really sure what angle it was...

The 60E really isn't so simple as people think...Frank knows all the tricks of the trade to make it hold up

The first problem is a broken aluminum forward clutch piston. The second problem is that it has a pwm style pump in a 94 transmission. Do I get 2 cookies?

Why would a small shop do something like that when it is so obvious? Is it just b/c they don't know....wouldn't it be well known didn't they use the same trans in the trucks and vans, so it should be a well known fact I would think

How much did that "rebuild" cost? At least you recouped some of your money back.

the first sign that he probably was messing you over was he has an attorney. But Just think of how many other times he may have been sued for doing the exact same thing.
