I tried to deal with them. Looked into them doing my tranny swap before I went with LIC.

I also tried to get a crucial gasket from them but was not able to get ahold of them via email or phones for that. So, at least a few years ago, their customer service was ****. I thank god for that though because going to LIC was the best car related decision I've ever made.
Usually I stay out of things like this but I think you have us confused with another shop. I have never been to Laguna Seca nor said I would meet anyone there to discuss a tranny. Are you sure you have the right shop?

While being a child of the 80's I'm terrible at knowing 80's music. Now movies form the 80's thats another story.
