Default LS1 Speed Tranny?

What and where? This term was used in another post. I'm looking for a stronger tranny, just don't know where to start. Help?

We can do anything from convert you over to a TH350 with a brake to just building you a VERY strong 4L60E. Whatever you are looking for, I think we can help. Give me a ring if you would like more information. :)

Call information and ask for Speed, Inc. or LS1 speed in Schaumburg, IL, and ask for Tom Izzo (he is the owner).. He just started this season offering beefed up A4 trannys for C5 for around $1,700.00 (parts only and i believe needs your core) and he is a big LS1 speed tuner in the Chicagoland area (deals primarily with the F-body crowd).. He's a nice guy who definitely knows his sheet and i have no other knowledge about this tranny other than what i have posted. I have a A4 Level IV racing tranny from finish line performance in Naperville, IL (ask for Chuck Johnson) and that tranny has one of the best reputations in the country right now for durabilitly, performance, etc. and it is probably as little more pricey than speed incs but not necessarily so. Either guy you call tell him Nitrovette (guy with tricked out 98 pewter vert) recommended you. I actually talked to both these tuners this past saturday and both chuck johnson and tom izzo are stand up guys who will take good care of you.

Goodluck,

Nitrovette
