sorry to break it to you, but that seems reasonable.
I paid 850$$ for mine, but I took the tranny out of the car myself.

yeah, I got a 1 year/12000 mile warranty.

I have since passed that, and everytime I have a trans problem, like a leak or something, they fix it for free.

I would say go to a private garage, dont go to a chain. They dont care as much.

For a few bucks more, you could have a Pro-Built. Wish I'd known that when my truck tranny went.....

I had my 700R4 rebuilt about 3 years ago and it has run fine. It cost me over $1200 to have it done. since, I have added a 350 4 bolt main to my TPI and an COMP CAM with headers and such lots of little upgrades. I now wish I had bought one of the B&M race prepped 700-R4's. Same price and I could have been set up for this engine. I have some bad shaking going on and just had my u-joints replaced.
