The Monster Box is no longer sold. Besides the Warranty is not worth the paper it is written on.

Should work just fine on your truck.

I second. I installed his VB in my truck and the diode locked up and toasted the flud. Man gave me credit for the VB when I bought his trans. From what I have heard on another forum, BTS has a 2 yr warranty that is "NO QUESTIONS ASKED". He has even fixed a customer's trans when it broke on a drag strip. Brian was even there. Get yourself a Ford reman and if the service manager has any hint that you have been racing, you are screwed. I have also heard that he has charged some stupid fee like $500 to rebuild the trans when it was out of warranty. Hell, the TC is already $1000.

I have a BTS. I have no issues. I bought a BTS VB first and then the diode locked up. Well, VB in a trans with toasted fluid. What is it worth? Nothing to me but Brian gave me credit for it.

I have a Monsterbox that I got from Bob Riley and although I had a catastrophic failure of the front seal just after I bought it they came through and I got a brand new trans, fluids, labor at a Ford Dealership since I was away from home and even the car rental while the truck was in the shop. The second trans has been great, not a glitch or leak with all the pulling, rodding or muddin' I have done.
