There is nothing "best" about elite.

Sucks to see another build get screwed around by elite.

suncoast has some nice looking 6r140 parts!

So is this build done?

I'm curious why you guys didn't just let Morgan at Midwest build the transmission. Even at this point he probably could build and get you one if needed. I don't know either way. But what I do know is there is no magic secret squirrel stuff any of them are doing other than a slight mod to the valve body and more clutch packs and a billet part here or there.

I understand brand loyalty. But sometimes the simple guy in Illinois can outfit you better and have a much better chance of support IF something were to go wrong.

I have zero brand loyalty. When I started the truck I didn't even know Morgan was building a trans and heard Elite makes a good trans. Boom there ya go I went with Elite. Plus I live in Ohio so neither are in my backyard if I need anything.

I am in NO way agreeing with Dan, but the best is NOT what Id say either.

no shame in that game.

I forgot to mention Jared from RCD set aside an H&S Low pressure pump for me. I'll have plenty of fuel and didn't really want 2 stock pumps. It's a cool idea but I'd rather only have 1 filter to replace. Plus it'll support fuel demands if I decide to go bigger injectors/turbos in the future. That's the only addition from the last update.

Underatand... I was just curious. Not picking.

as far as being in the back yard. What I was getting at is I do believe Morgan would support you regardless of gps coordinates.

I was actually talking the other day about the only product I'm missing is a No Limit product. Turbo kit came with an intake and I already had an EGR plate from when I deleted it. I honestly thought about switching to the No Limit EGR. I really like the idea of the bypass so the coolant still flows instead of dead heading at the plate.

Cool

I grew up here, recently returned back here after several years in the Army, now I'm back. I'd like to see your truck sometime once its done if you're ever in the area again good sir. I'm in the process of a motor build on my 6.4 actually as well.

Definitely man. I'm all over Columbus and surrounding areas so that should be easy.

When you're done with your 6.4 we'll take them to National Trails and see how they do.

sounds good to me, I actually work in the south end of Columbus off of Thurman Ave down past Parsons, my job takes me all around Cbus and all of Ohio. So I've probably seen your truck before the build most likely, haha.
