Hmmm...You're having the trans done by a company out
of Conneticut. let's see....Quantum Mechanics? If so
(I'm sure it is)Great work! Mike Graziano and I both
had John rebuild our 1500 trans.'s I couldn't be
happier with the quality as well as John's demeanor. I
will always recommend him fro transmission rebuilds
(no personal gain...just a very happy customer).
