OK, I get the jest of it now. Sounds like a reputable place, but not the tranny place!

No...not me!

Just a member that hasn't been here in a while, and is trying to get back up to speed on the forums.

(Some of these posts were moved here from other threads, in other forums, so...altho it may be confusing, it's not as confusing as it was before they were moved.)
He'll get the hang of it, so ya'll play nice.

Lusby Maryland 20657. Its at the south end of Calvert Co . right on the bay. And KLJ doesn't build there auto trans. They do work on them like shift kits, seals ,change the ATF and filter. They do the 700r upgrades. I first got info about the 700r being better from you guys. KLJ does no body work or wheel alignment yet. They are growing all the time. They put my car together after the wheel came off. They did a real good job too. And they worked with me over the money. Because I don't have much money.

Well its in my driveway. I ran real good. KLJ stands behind all there work. I looked at it on the lift.. It looks real good they even cleaned it up under the car. They also put my u-joints in for free plus a free oil change and front end lube. I paid for the u-joints the labor was free. They even gave me the black plastic that holds the AC mode switch thats a $40 part. I got all that for being cool and not jumping up and down. Wink

Hey Charlie, glad to see it worked out for you. Its great to see a place stand behind their work! I've delt with KLJ Corvettes before and they seem reputable. Rob is great to deal with!

And that goes for the rest of you guys that served. Now back to the trans. It takes off quicker . Mine goes into 4th gear at 40mile pre hour, the converter locks up and the tack goes way down. Like a different car. Sounds different to. Just drove it around so far all so good. Thumbs Up

Glad that worked out well for you Charlie. I know how it is when your vette is out of service, kind of like having a sick family member.
