Default Anyone know if Monster transmissions are good?

I called and they seem to offer a good deal on 4L60 and built Tq conv. Anyone have good or bad experience?

I am running 580rwhp. With aps tt and it hits hard early.

Any recommendations on stall would be nice.

I know rpm is good but more pricey and not local.

Call RPM and speak with Jeremy. Everyone there is a die hard car guy and they will take care of you. Very nice shop.

Sure looks like they suck! I've never heard one bad comment about RPM and from my stand point you can't get any better!

Just hate spending 1000's just a month after the turbos I had put on. Been down 4 months for the turbos and now another 6 months to afford the trans.

Yes, but you'd hate it a lot more if you spent a thousand, it broke and you STILL had to go get an RPM done right. Just sayin'...not trying to make fun of you. But after reading that page of complaints, ugh is all I can say.
