I work for transmission shop and i like your opinion.I shake my head on what people are paying of the internet for transmission shipped to there door.
Did you ever think that you are paying for the knowledge that transmission builder has?...
After all it's not rocket science,i have seen build a very nice car with some very complicated electronics.
So why didn't you build the transmission too?
I like to help out when possible,hell i have even offered my labor for free.The person that built your transmission,if he reads this provides his service to help car guys finish there goals on there car builds.
Yes,it kind of peeves me that you wrote that but i will get over it,no harm done i still respect what you have done.:cheers:

I don't have the time to build my own or I would. Plus for the cost of the parts alone, I would have had more into the build than buying it already done.
Yes I understand there are tricks to the trade on assembly. I also chose Tranzact of Indy, they have been around for alot longer than most of the other BIG NAME guys.
Mopars are expensive enough and there is no reason for the fellow MOPAR guys to Gouge us for the same exact thing you can buy down the street from the manufacturer of the parts they are using. If you are a Boaster and a Braggart and want to tell everyone I paid 7K for my trans be my guest that is not for me. I would rather be the underdog passing those crackers up with less $$ invested and have them leaving with their tail between their legs.
I understand the cost of running a business but just because someone has a HUGE Overhead that is not my problem.
Put it this way, I saved so much $$ by not buying from the BIG NAME guys that it will pay for all of my body work to Primer/Ready for paint.:cheers:

Also who is actually assembling those big $$ transmissions?? I can tell you it is not the owner, it is some tech making $15.00 per hour that does not have a vested interest and he is done with assembly in less than 4 hours start to finish.
