2004R Transmissiln Vendor

[Zyman]

Any real world experience good and bad with the following sellers of performance 2004R transmissions? I am considering them for my 1968 Firebird that will have GM6.0L Vortec L96 built in the 450-500 HP range and similar TQ numbers.


California Performance Transmission ("The Real Art Carr").
TCI Automotive Streetfighter Transmission.
Proformabuilt Transmissions in Sugarloaf PA.
Transmission Depot Inc. in Hudson, FL.


The last two are a lot lower cost (~25%) than the first two, well known, trans builders.

The "real Art Carr" was the first to start building strong 200Rs. CK performance is big in the high powered Buick circles . In the Houston area Mike at Century Transmissions in RIchmond builds a good one(Pontiac friend has one behind a 535" IA motor in his 70 TA)
