i called sloans before i bought trans, i talked to other members on racingjunk before i bought trans , i researched internet on their transmissions and i guess there are 6 and 7 second guys using their transmissions ....and then i bought trans ,,i did all the research a person can make ....the only thing i did not do is post a question on the forum about sloans ,,, at this point all i can do it tell my experience with sloans trans. -- it doesnt matter if i sent trans to abruzzi at firs [ my mistake ] i had it shipped to sloans after that ,,, so it doesnt matter if i would have sent it australia ,,and it finaly made it to sloans ,,the fact is that they did nothing to fix the problem --twice
