    need trans work and motor work on 05

    I need the name of a good trans shop in so cal/ventura/LA area.
    I have sent JW an email and left a few messages but i know his main book of business isnt 6.0 guys.

    i want to have my trans built in the next 10k and set up for my motor mods i will be doing the end of summer 08.

    what should or do i need to get my trans to hold up to 600hp? I am planing on doing DJ diesels mod kit that comes with the vgt upgrade and 190cc injectors, etc. after talking with DJ and Vivian they said i will be close to 600 w/ out spray but for sure more than 550 is what they have been seeing people get, they also said they have been having problems with suncoast lately with them not honoring warrenty stuff and they said i should go else where to get my trans stuff because warrenty stuff has been falling back onto them instead of suncoast like it should, so i am kinda stumped where to go and what i need. i know i will need a torque converter and input/output shafts, and near internals?

    which brings me to my next question. who around here can do headstuds and the other work for me? (injectors and installing fuel system/turbo)

    The 6.0 is his speciallity and if you call him between 7 and 8 AM that is the best time to get him. I talked to him last week and he is swamped. Be patient. It will be worth the wait. Call monday to check on it.

    In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he said:
    "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in... And how many want out." Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
    1. Jesus Christ
    2. The American G. I.

    He has tuned the world quickest 6.0 and I have never driven in a better shifting 6.0 that was tuned from someone else. But as Mike said and I will say as well he builds the best 7.3 transmisions around.
