Feed back American Powertrain products

[frankv11]

Looking to buy t56 magnum to LS6 bellhousing, clutch kit , flywheel, and hydraulic clutch assembly kit. Does any one have any experience with they're products. I was looking to get QuickTime bell housing which they carry but sales guy they have they have they're own which is a quite a bit less.
Any feed back on any of they're products will be much appreciated

Also considering buying from them, anybody heard anything about them, good or bad? As in Customer Service, how do they honor their warranty, how do there products hold up (T-56 Magnum).

It isn't a transmission but I have one of their crossmembers. It was listed as for a 4L80e but it's a universal one which is fine, except the two pages of instructions fail to indicate how the 4 pieces go together for a 4L80e, just most every other transmission.

The powder coating on two parts with threaded holes was terrible and it seemed like no one had bothered to look at the parts before sending them to me, but then again the threads were so caked in coating that you could barely even tell that they were threaded at all so maybe that's why it was missed.

My father and I bought a 5-speed from American Powertrain for dad's '72 Big Block Chevelle SS and the experience was very positive. We went with a TKO600 ProFit kit and one of their hydraulic systems. Customer service was great, product was as promised and we were even invited to their shop to do the installation on their lift. That made it a pretty easy job.

Much later, when my father (old timer that he is) decided he couldn't get used to the feel of the hydraulics and wanted to swap to his old mechanical linkage (as I said, he goes way back) Gray, one of the owners, came in on a Saturday to spend the morning helping me get it swapped back over. He even pulled a couple of parts off the shelf that were needed and handed them to me.

Now don't expect them to do this for everyone, but I think that is pretty much an over the top effort from where I stand.

Dad loves the gearbox, the car cruises great with it and I would recommend them to anyone.

I noticed this past weekend on the Horsepower TV show, they supplied them with a complete 6 speed conversion for a 69 they are building. Found the link here it is:

We are starting to deal with them more as of late and have been happy with what they have done for us so far.

I have dealt with Gray and American Powertrain a fair amount. I bought a TKO extreme, and a Clutch set up. I use them on my 1965 GTO, 600hp, driven everywhere and has a best quartermile of 11.34 @ 123mph. They have been great to deal with and Gray is great to deal with, and has great technical knowledge.

I would highly recommend them, hope this help!

Ordered a magnum and some other parts about a week ago from them. They have good prices and are helpful and knowledgeable on the phone.
