On the way to school today my tranny decided to take a poop. But any way what Im wanting to know is what kinds of transmissions has everyone had luck with. I have a 2003 F250 and it has the 7.3. It has a garett 38r turbo, air intake, dp tuner. Im wanting to get a built tranny and I will probably end up getting injectors in the near future. It will be pushing over 400 hp. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I have heard good things about BTS and was just seeing if there were any other ones that would compare!

I just looked up and the BTS has like a 2 year warranty. Are any of the others close to that?

well the written warranty is 2 years unlimited mile, unlimited power, but many many people have said even after the 2 years are up that brian would rebuild it for free

2 year full coverage. Lifetime parts so you just pay for oil and time to fix. I've had my first one for 7 years and put a lot of TQ to it and busted it a couple times but for 100-200 bucks it's better than new with all the latest upgraded parts, no charge. Latest trans has been in one piece for a few years with a little power through it, more than twice what you will put through it.

All that have been mentioned will be very reliable with 400hp. I would go with the builder that is most local to you.

BTS is in Arkansas
JW i believe is west coast
And Twisted Diesel I believe is East Coast

How long did it take for you to receive your transmissions. Im in Illinois and will have it shipped to have a shop around here do it.

Empire Diesel sells Twisted Diesel transmissions. If you are near RCD then they are just a 3 hour trip from you. That would probably be your best bet.
