If you have tried ideal engines for engine and gearbox reconditioing and faced issues like delayed shipment and jerky transaction, then you arent alone. I faced botht hese problems first hand on my one and only encounter with them BUT no matter how delayed, 1.5 month to be exact, i recieved gearbox for my mini cooper, the unit was totally worth it. almost on every weekend i go on track and rev up to 6 or 7k, and havent noticed any glitch in transmission in last six months, when previously small recurring issues were a norm. i have to give props to these guys on their skills and not on their management.
