I would say the answer to that is directly relative to your mechanical aptitude and available tools.

How much does it cost to rebuild the tranny when sending it in to Gast or R&D?

FBG = $400 drag cut
$800 back cut both sides for cct racing
You don't need to cryo a 14 transmission, unless your running a car tire and over 300 HP.
Get a billet clutch hub and basket instead... they will break before the tranny ever does.

This ain't no busa tranny.
Nobody has been makiing billet gears for the 14 for a reason.
I had a busa trans out on the bench to compare with the 14 transmission.... no comparison.
As stated by FGB, biggest most stout trans in the industry... they laughed when I asked if I needed billet gears or shafts...

You don't hear of any 14's with slipping 2nd gears or broken tranny's.
Thats the Busa crutch...LOL

I'm not getting into any internet my hero is better than yours

Do what ya like, I own the work of FBG, in the past have dealt with the others too.
