Tip of the day.. if you are building a 68, better clean this check valve or… if it’s stuck your converter will be empty on your next start up 😂

It’s amazing this little screen that decided to unattach itself from the separator plate will instantly cause a no reverse condition. 😂

First off, thank you to everyone who played.
I know some people probably thought this was cheesy, but honestly, the odds here are way better than buying a T-shirt or entering one of those truck giveaways where the page disappears after a few months.

The winner of the transmission is:
🏆 Ryan Thacker — I called him personally and he was super excited.

Second place ($250 cash):
🥈 Todd Rutledge
Third place:
🥉 Rodrigo Perez — he already has one of our transmissions, so he’s getting a bypass upgrade + a T-shirt.

BONUS:
Anyone (that paid and played)who buys a transmission from us in the future will receive a 10% off coupon code.

Seriously, thank you guys so much for the support. It means more than you know. 💪
We will run this again if everyone wants to in the future

CLOSED! FULL!

Let’s run a 🧇 like we hinted at last month.
Stage 2 750hp 68rfe unit, if you win, I need a core in return is the only catch.
It will also include shipping to you and the core return.
Comes with converter, flex, etc.
125 spots at 75$ a spot.
Once 3/4 filled I’ll ask for payment.
This unit will fit 07.5-18 IF the winner is 19+ I will arrange the unit to work with your truck.

Tip of the Day

When you’re shopping for a 68RFE, 47RE, 48RE, or honestly any automatic transmission…
There is no such thing as a “brand-new” unit.

All transmission companies — big names or small shops — are working off core units. Those cores get rebuilt to whatever level or spec that builder offers. That’s it.

Over the years I’ve seen a ton of people get misled into thinking buying a “new” transmission is somehow better than rebuilding their own.
Truth is: it’s the exact same process.
You’re still taking a used core, disassembling it, replacing wear items, machining components if needed, and upgrading parts based on the build level.

So when you compare “new vs rebuild,” just remember:
✔️ There is no difference
✔️ It all comes down to the builder, the parts used, and the quality control behind it

Also get a parts list and don’t get hosed.
