Just now getting around to posting a report on my tranny that Smokin' Diesel Performance did for me. It is everything I hoped for and more. Shifts smooth while cruising and locks up tight when I'm floggin' it. Held up to my first truck pull...broke my front driveshaft though. No intermittent quirks either. My boss has a ATS built tranny and after riding in my truck he hates the way his shifts. He's gonna have them build his next one. HIGHLY recommend their work. They are reasonably priced too. Was only $3,500 installed out the door. Got around 7,000 miles on it with no issues so far.

Still going strong! Haven't had one single issue with it. I've pulled in one truck pull and towed many trailers including a 24 hr trip to Idaho pulling a 32ft. gooseneck through the mountains.

Yeah not sure. I know that he doesn't personally build them there. He was having a GM certified mechanic build them last I knew I don't know about now.

Anymore info on who builds them now? Anyone else out there running a trans from this shop?

My boss runs one as well and one of my buddies just recently got one too. My boss's truck is putting down like 605hp and 1300ft/lbs. Runs 12.3s at the track.

Just got my truck back for trans build, while there they installed my turbo, egr delete, uppipe, driverside manifold.

Have to say great people, so far like the way it shifts. Come back later for more feedback
