you could always call alan at a-1 transmissions. I bought mine thru him.

I know these are good folks and they have a great product but you see racers with these issues every year.

Lots of companies sell good reliable transmissions, but are there other companies that build them that are as fast?

My particular application is a 904 Torqueflite.

Do they make aluminum 7 clutch direct drums and straight cut planetaries for a C4?

As far as I know no one else has this stuff.

They are that busy for a reason.

What's the difference between A-1 and Pro Trans for a Turbo 350?

Nothing. I believe they are one of the same. Chrysler 904 billet aluminum internals installed into a TH-350 case. That's why they are so expensive.

Yes, they are insanely busy. Generally when you do get in line for
a transmission there are very few holdups because they make most of
the exotic components in house.

They are a family owned and operated shop......Darren just was married
and he may be on honeymoon because the off season in racing is short.
He certainly owed his new wife one as Monday after the wedding he was
back at the shop putting in a full day of work!

We have them in EVERY racer we own. We could buy the pieces our self
and have someone else build them or do them our self as
we used to do. However, we were NEVER as fast or seemed to
get the longevity out of the units. Also when we buy the drums and
straight cut gears obyiously we must wait until they have extra after providing
the production for the transmissions they build themselves.
