Monstertransmissions.com they are based in Florida. I've had great experience with them I'm the past. Call them if you aren't sure or if you wanna mitch - match parts in a kit but from mild to ridiculously wild they have the parts for you...or just get one already built!

but you know what they say in retail. if you have a good experience somewhere you might tell 3 people and if you have a bad experience you will tell 10.

I also did the mods to dual-feed the direct clutch.

Wow.... I got nothing else to say about this one! I take back my advice and second this one.

This is a very good point that I never really thought of.. I do a lot of business with summit. I've easily spent $3k in the last 3 months and have no issues.
