So, to start I wasn’t sure which category this post should go into, so mods, feel free to move it. Basically I had a mechanic lined up to do a rebuild on my transmission with my shift kit and servo, its a 1994 3.4l Camaro with a 4L60e, this was all going to cost about $1000 all said and done. He recently got laid off and most likely won’t be able to do it, I was wondering if anyone knew of a good shop around here who might be able to do it for basically the same price. I’m not looking for a miracle, but maybe someone on here knows someone, its a cash deal too 🙂 Thanks for any help.

Another vote for Hodge! - Ask for the “Brian from JJ’s Special”.

I might be calling him this weekend, my regular guy got a job but he’s real busy. Should I actually ask for the brian from jj’s special? Or is that just a joke I’m missing?

No joke…he’ll just know to build it a certain way, using billet servos, red bands, better clutches, etc. Hell, he even gave me choices of higher RPM stalls!
