    Cal and Holly Hartline

    Two great people that go the extra mile for their customers. Unlike some other shops that I have dealt with, they have no problem with Canadian customers and do their best to ensure everything goes smoothly for them. Thanks again! Adam Franko

    4l80 vs 2004R converter

    Thanks guys! The only reason I ask is because I have about 120 miles on my vig and I'm not about to toss it away or sell it at a huge loss. With the current dollar situation I've been thinking more and more about picking up a duramax truck in the US and less about changing out my already new...

    200 4R tranny fitting

    I'm buying some -6 fittings to connect my tranny lines to the tranny and I have forgotten what size the threads are in the tranny itself. Any help would be appreciated. I'd take the brass one out and screw this direct into the tranny. Thanks.

    Best way to replace rear springs??

    Sounds like a good way to rip that rubber brake line.... If unbolting the shocks isn't enough, unbolt the brake line and it should drop lost for you.

    Things that have gone wrong on aroad trip in a Buick.

    Not Buick, but 20 minutes from home after a 6 hour road trip my fuel pump lit on fire and also melted the wiring all the way to the front and started the plastic inner fender on fire. Pump was in the trunk, beside the plastic fuel cell, beside the full nitrous bottle..... Needless to say I...

The best bet for me would be to run the one front line into my line loc, and then the two lines to the fronts from there. Then run the...

    gutting the combo valve

    I did a search for gutting the proportioning valve and came up with only one hit. It didn't explain what exactly you need to do. Can someone shed some light on this before I put my wilwood rear discs in. Thanks a lot!:)

    Pulling tranny question

    You guys need to buy some flex head gear wrenches. Best tool for those upper bell housing bolts. Something people forgot to mention, drain the tranny pan first. Otherwise you're going to have a mess.

    Epitome, Cotton's, and Full Throttle Speed

    I have recently dealt with all these people. The transactions went smooth for the most part. There were a few snags due to living in Canada, but everything ended well. Thanks to Ted, Jack + Jerry, and Mike + Marianne + Jason.
