Nice man 10k definitely sounds reasonable. My last question was worded like shit and what it was supposed to say was: What do them things run in the 1320? What does the one you bought run? ---

I take it they are kinda unreliable?? Kinda. The most unreliable part is the transmission. Pushing 400 ft lbs of AWD power through a 700r4 wasnt a great idea. There is just not enough strength in a 700 for that kind of abuse. Kept stock they are very reliable. When people start “modding” them without proper knowledge thats when trouble starts. I wouldnt touch a SyTy that had had work done to it without a ton of documentation. IMO they become “unreliable” when they fall into uninformed hands. ---

Them 700s can be built to take good power though can’t they? Yeah they can, but I have never seen a shop not knowing what a SyTy is have a transmission hold up. They always fail. There are a few SyTy specific parts in the trans they usually get discarded. I had my trans rebuilt by a SyTy transmission guy and it was 1800 for the cheapest rebuild. And I had to ship it to SC. Many people are swapping 80e’s in for a couple g’s more and never worrying about it again. ---
