Question 700R4 Trans

Has anyone ever bought a transmission from Maddog trans or Monster motor sports mine is on its way out. I have also been looking at Bowtie overdrive. Any suggestions B&M is too much $$$ TCI runs a close second to B&M. Thanks for the help and Happy New year to all.

Rusty, I purchased my 700 from Bowtie Overdrives. I am very happy with it so far, the service was excellent, and I got everything I needed with one phone call.

Hey Jeff Thanks for the info on Bowtie. I like what they have to offer. I am looking at the level 2. What do you have and how long have you been running it? Thanks again!

I can't remember what level I have, but it is the 2nd best one they offer. I also have not had it running yet, but from the service I received, the quality of the stuff that came, and the completeness of the package...I have no doubt I will be happy.

Make sure whatever trans you get has the $5 seal retainer on the pump input seal.
Cheap insurance.
