That's the first I've heard of that personally. I've talked to about five other people that have had custom work done there- anywhere from custom engine builds for drag trucks to people like me that have had them fabricate a entire turbo kit for it and they have all been extremely pleased. I've talked to others on others also that have gone there for simple bolt-ons and had routine maintenance done and have had nothing but positive to say.
I've talked to them extensively and told them exactly what I wanted done and with what components, etc. They are using a suncoast gmax 5pac kit for the trans. I looked into buying a trans from Calvins in Louisiana and having it shipped here but it worries me if something goes wrong internally his shop isn't local to take it to for service and repair- and his price was about 1K more (mostly shipping trans here and core back)
I've talked to performance diesel in Mt. Pleasant and he said he doesn't build Allison transmissions but offered me a crate ATS transmission which I don't want. I've never heard of Lion Heart- ill have to look into that.
