I'm in Jess for a little of that action! You do know the Ohio boys are corn fed and can eat and drink when the need arises. I just bought me a old cadillac so I can return the truck to race trim. It's a drug bust car and the price was rite!! I'm not a caddy guy but i'm poor and need a ride. Jeff

This was the number on a conversion that was done earlier this year.This is shop labor as well.Actually i think the number was a little higher that 11k if you really get down to it.So how much would you charge to do this job?

There are too many variables to give one set price. It depends on how the truck was equipped from the factory, what upgrades the customer wants on the 48re, etc. The good thing about Goerend is that when you order a tranny, it automatically comes with all upgrades except billet shafts and drum. Those are the only additional parts. So assuming a guy wanted a full billet tranny(minus billet drum because the 68 wont turn enought rpm's to need it) and his truck came with a 6 speed manual, it could be converted for around $9000 +/_. That is a full billet 48Re with custom vb and PCS. So there is not even a comparison between that setup and a 68RFE even if its a full billet also. And Goerend will take a 68RFE or a G56 for core, so there is no additional cost there. Say a guy that was only making around 550-600hp and only wanted a billet input, it could be done for less than $8000, again depepnding on if it was a g56 or 68 truck. The 68RFE trucks will need a different adapter plate because the stock one is too thick. And then you have the option of florr shifter or stock column shifter. The column shifter would be a little more of course. And also, you will have endless options on converter stall because Goerend has a lifetime converter warranty and if you wanna change it for any reason, All you gotta do is pay shipping and he'll send you another one. Of course there would be labor costs involved unless the customer wanted to swap it theirselves.

If you're racing three trucks, I guess that's a good number:rules:
