An

1957 Chevy 210 4dr wagon
PURCHASED: American Powertrain Hydramax™ Hydraulic Clutch Kit |
 |
|
My 1957 Chevy 210 4dr wagon has a ZZ502 BBC with Muncie 4 speed and your
hydraulic clutch conversion kit. It works great
and I waited too long to do it. |
 |
 Car
also has an Art Morrison front clip with power rack and
pinion, coil over shocks, tubed A-frames and Welwood disc brakes with drilled rotors. The rear is a Currie 9" ford with 3.70 gears, 31 splined axles and Detroit locker and big drum brakes.

I would like to take the time to thank you for all of you assistance and expertise with my purchase and installation of my new Tremec 5 speed. Your confidence in this product was only exceeded by the outstanding performance of this application. Paul, you made this whole process seamless and you carried out every facet of this sale from unit delivery to technical support - a thing of organizational beauty and smoothness.
I would wholeheartedly advise any muscle car enthusiast to truly consider the Tremec Transmission because of it's increased economy, strength, durability, and cruiseability over all other applications. I found that having 21st century engine, suspension, and differential upgrades and using a 46 year old Muncie made no performance sense. After installing the Tremec, I questioned myself of why I waited so long because nothing compares with the way that this car operates and performs now, from idle to stomp down and go.
I understand some enthusiasts need for originality but if you can heighten the fun and enjoyability that you will have with a Tremec Trans, it is something that should be really considered. If that consideration turns into a real plan to purchase one of this special units, please use American Powertrain for your company of choice because the reps (especially Paul Unterstein) will stand beside you all the way through the process while the company will stand behind the whole experience.
Thanks again.

Power Tour was a great time. The car was very well received by
spectators and Hot Rod Magazine and Hot Rod TV. DF photographed it
and Rob Kinnan also did a shoot on it. Jerry Pit had HRTV do a shoot
on it and they interviewed me. Oh yeah 80 mph was a comfortable 2300
rpm. Gotta love American Powertrain!

600Extreme, ProGrip ProTwin Clutch
Well I went for a couple of drives, everything seems excellent, the
clutch is really good, no chattering at all, very easy to drive. The
trans shifts very nice for being brand new, I am already loving the
,64 overdrive… Day two was excellent, I have almost 200miles on it
already.....can't wait to try it at the track!!

Gray, the install went great and I could not be happier with the
TREMEC that I installed. The car hit the road for the first time on
Fathers Day and it was great. The engine RPM @ 70 MPH was 1800; what
an improvement.
Thank You Very Much

Tina,
You and your company have done an outstanding job. The project
was not very big but you went out of your way to make me happy.
I will be very pleased to recommend you to those who ask about
the product and who help make in successful. If you would mail
me a few business cards I will keep them in my car and when
people ask I would be more then happy to hand them out. As soon
as I get Bruce to finish up the window knobs we will start back
on the console. I will make sure when we are done you get a pic
for your scrap book.
Thank you

Dear Gray Fredrick,
I can't begin to thank you enough for the fantastic and speedy service
that you extended out to me and my husband when purchasing the
transmission for our 69 Mustang. It was by far that smoothest
transaction I have ever made and your knowledge and expertise made our
decision that much easier. Thanks again so much. Michelle & Johnny H. |

An email from J. Garfield, North Carolina
Mr. Hall,
The 5-speed is magnificent!!! My car behaves as if it had been
waiting for it.--Quicker off the mark, cooler running engine, lower rpms, handles like a much smaller and lighter roadster. You've
installed the speed-shift spring for 3rd and 4th gears.--I like it.
The last time I wrote to you, I told you of the 24.1 mpg I
experienced
driving from Gary's shop to my home in Asheville.--It has gotten
better with my highest recorded mpg being 28.2 (The overall average
for that 260-mile trip from Asheville to Fort Bragg was 27.8 mpg.)
The trip from Fort Bragg to Asheville is along gentle uphill roads
with the steepest hill being Old Fort Mountain.--On good (i.e.,
ideal) days with the GM Turbo 3-speed Automatic, my mpg would be in
the 18.5 to 19.3 range using 13.0 gallons. On my 16 February trip
to Asheville with the TKO500, I used 9.9 gallons. I habitually
travel at the established speed limits.
Most sincerely,
Jeff Garfield.
Happy Life with 5-speed

Hey Gray,
Here is a picture of my 68 Camaro. It is a 396/375 SS. I drive it even more now that I have that 5th gear working for me. (:-) I love the Tremec TKO 5-speed I got from American Powertrain. It has performed great.
I must tell you, though, what I was really looking for was someone I could count on if needed. Since I was putting the five speed in myself, that was an important factor in my decision. I have to say, I was not disappointed with the commitment you made at the time of sale. Every time I called, I always got an answer. A couple of those times were on the weekend and in the evenings.
You have not disappointed my expectations at all. If anything you have exceeded them.
Thanks again for a great product, and even more, someone there if needed!

Hi Tina
First of all let me thank all for the first class
customer service. Everyone has been courteous, prompt and helpful beyond
expectations. I look forward to future business with you and recommend
you to all.
I have now driven a few miles, some "enthusiastically" using the
performance (but within the speed limits officer.....!!).
Overall, I am extremely pleased with the improved driving experience as well, top
marks.
Regards,

TKO600 Transmission
Conversion Kit for 1973 Challenger
November 20, 2007
Dear Gray,
First let me thank
you for caring about the product you're selling me and explaining which
transmission would be best suited for my application.
I
will say at first, spending this kind of money on a transmission is a huge
expenditure for me. But because of your knowledge and customer service
this is why I went for what seems to be the perfect fit for the Challenger.
I'm awaiting my parts and transmission. It will be a few months before I
can recover monetarily and have the kit installed into the car but believe
me I can hardly wait. I will keep you updated on the progress of the
car, as soon as it is installed for a final progress report.
What made me purchase the kit from you is the customer service that you gave
me and without that I would have probably gone somewhere else. You
were also able to shave quite a bit of the price which also was a
determining factor. If all goes well, I will tell everyone I know to
call you for the kit. May you and your Family have a
happy and safe Holiday season.

XJS 5-speed
An email from Jeff
Gentlemen:
THANK YOU.
I truly appreciate the reception, conversations,
getting me to the hotel, and all the great,
hard work in
installing the 5-speed.
Guys, the trip to Asheville was great.--'Like
driving a new sports car! Once I entered Highway 40, I remained in 5th
until exiting on Asheville's Highway 240 Loop. Of course the RPMs were
down compared to the automatic's top gear and the temperature guage rested above
"C" but well below "N", so the engine was running cooler. The car felt
more maneuverable. I really enjoyed the
115-mile drive.
Most respectfully,
Jeff.
Your loyal
customer. |

Hi Tina,
Thanks great, I look forward to receiving the part soon. Thanks so much for you
courteous, quick response and the help with finding a cheap shipping solution.
Robert was very helpful with informing me about the product. The attention I
received for such a low ticket item makes this one of the most pleasant
experiences I have had dealing with any company. I look forward to dealing with
you in the future.
Thanks,
Fawaz A.
