Yeah. They've built 3 for my truck

If all you are planning is TC and VB, you can't beat Dave Goerend.

I've been told if you do TC to do the input shaft as well.


Also was told that my TC would hold with some mild mods (stock fuel system and stock turbo) by a reputable shop in the Houston area. He said just do a VB and go from there.

HTS all the way, every time i go up there i get fed beer and pizza...who can argue with that? when you buy an HTS its like you get adopted into a new family, everyone here that has ever met Dusty and Marianne can vouch for that.
