3 Transmissions Later....
And Rodney is still the man!!! After grenading my rear end and taking the tranny with it I decided to use Rodney for the new tranny. I originally did have some reservations about a guy being in another state and not being able to get my hands on him in case of a screw job. Well all I can say is Rodney is a stand up guy. The first tranny he sent out kept popping out of reverse. I had WCC pull the tranny and the reverse gears were cut wrong. Rodney sent me anther tranny and it kept popping out of reverse as well. Wcc yanked that one and Rodney sent the third which works like a charm. When the bill came for yanking the tranny twice Rodney stepped up and paid the whole thing. How many other shops would have stood by their word and done this? Probably not many. I just wanted to thank Rodney for being a stand up guy and taking care of this. The new tranny shifts like silk and after this 1.5 month ordeal I am very happy. Thanks again Rodney, you have my business for life.

I don't think he's opened the 2nd one up yet so I'm not sure. I would assume something similar to the first as it was the same exact problem. The shifter was lined up and everything else double checked.

Thats a good question. I spent a lot of time going over the unit and made sure everything was PERFECT,BUT we still had a problem. I have yet to open up the unit the second time but I will as soon as I get caught up. I built a replacement unit and shipped it right away. The overall deal cost me money,but I wanted to make sure everyone was happy in the end. Since we have the billet key issues straightened out we just don't have problems with the 6 spd units and the 4L60E market has just gone 
Nuts around here I'm glad everything worked out, I am human and miss things and do make mistakes (not very often though 
) but I will admit when I do.

Rodney is the best and will go above and beyond the call probably too a fault as he always is just a phone call away no matter what when you need help or what the help is about.
If you EVER need transmission work he is the one and only one IMHO to do the work. See you soon so we can bullet proof my tranny and rear for the new Supercharger.
