Extremely knowledgeable staff. They were honest and realistic with my power goals. They didn't try to upsell me on something I did not need, and were very accommodating with the large amount of work I was wanting to get done to my Corvette. They also have been very good at communicating about the status of the job. I would definitely recommend coming to this shop. Impressed! read more

Texas Drivetrain Performance - Two sexy Vettes out front - Auto Repair Near Me - Hurst, Texas

Here's what I think of TDP, Jan. 30, 2024 was the invoice date for finally having my 05' CTS-V Tremac T-56 manual transmission supposedly rebuilt by TDP for the first time since I bought the car off the lot in 05', my car has 225,985 miles on the original transmission and engine. Out of warranty (they have a one year warranty) and less than 8,000 miles on the tranny, with normal driving (I don't even do burnouts, let alone racing) my transmission had to be completely rebuilt, again! The shop who did the new rebuild is one of the most reputable transmission shops in Orange County CA, very well known and specializing in Corvette transmissions (wish I went to them in the first place). They walked me through all the parts that had to be replaced and showed me what was done before based on TDP's invoice, they didn't bad mouth or disparage TDP in any way shape or form, they let me come to my own conclusion by presenting the parts and procedure they had to go through to make my transmission correct. TDP invoiced me $3,494.45 for the rebuild (+ $400.00 for shipping it back and forth to CA.), my new rebuild invoice is $4,591.06. Now, I know exactly what is inside my new transmission. I now have a transmission that has been rebuilt twice, in less than 2 years and cost me $8,085.51 + $400.00 in shipping. $8485.51 in total, This was a very expensive lesson to learn and my point is to ALWAY'S be sure you're getting what you pay for. Based on my experience I would never recommend Texas Drivetrain Performance! If I could give you a zero star, I would! read more

I was having issues with my LT1 T56 and began searching for a shop. I heard about Jason at Texas Drivetrain on a forum and found nothing but positive feedback on his customer service and workmanship. I gave him a call and quickly found out why so many people talked highly of him. He was extremely knowledgeable and I was confident he would be the one rebuilding my T56. I shipped my T56 from CA to TDP. Jason had it for just under a week and I had it back in no time. Tranny shifts flawlessly now and bangs gears better than ever. I've had over 500 trouble free miles. I highly recommend Jason for your T56 rebuilds. He will not disappoint you! read more

The T56 on my 2005 CTS V had a catastrophic failure which included parts Tremac no longer supplies. TDP did a stage 2 rebuild; parts: no problem, and produced a transmission which works perfectly. Jason has put together a very talented group of craftsmen and Jason, his sales manager was very accessible and competent and was able to answer all questions about the build Great Crew!! read more

These guys know their stuff. I went in to have them change out the final drive gear set for a trans that came out of a 2003 Corvette Z06. While talking to them about my project they showed me the different gears as well as the primary and secondary shafts that were in my T56, and they showed me where they would fail with my power level. Then they showed me on the bench the internals for the T56 Magnum, and the TR6060. Much beefier and I decided on the spot to have them build one for me. I also got to choose my 5th & 6th gear sets. The could have just let me blow up my T56 and then made more money by fixing it, but by showing me the differences and they even had broken parts they pulled out their junk bin to show me how they broke. They also rebuilt my diff with new. Bearings and resplined it to work with the larger output shaft on the new trans. By being honest and up front with, me they saved me money because I was able to sell my T56 (still in working condition) to help recoup part of the costs for a new trans. read more

Just had a Stage 2 build done on my T56 by Jason and his shop. My transmission got mangled by a previous local shop, broken keys, chipped gears. Just almost complete and total catastrophic failure with less than 600 miles on it and no high revs, track time etc. I told Jason (tech at TDP) what the issue was and after I got my car back, I shipped the transmission down to him. From doorstep to doorstep, Jason had it done in a hair over a week. Jason is the quintessential model for customer service. He doesn't always answer the calls or emails right away but the man is busy. His shop is constantly moving product. That didn't bother me in the least because I knew that my transmission was in good hands, and when it was ready, it would be on its way back. I put my transmission back in the car today. The previous shop mangled something in the 3/4 assembly so when I shifted, it would grind, 4th gear was basically unusable. But now, after Jason worked his magic. All gears are smooth. Downshifting is easy but firm. The transmission just feels "tighter" than it used to. Feels newer and more assertive. If anyone needs any T56 or similar manual transmission service or upgrades, I would say, without hesitation, Jason and the guys at Texas Drivetrain Performance are your absolute best and only bet. The price is right, they look at everything and advise you what needs to be done and what doesn't need to be done, they are up front and just genuinely nice people. The shop that "rebuilt" the transmission before Jason got it didn't give me all the parts back and Jason even offered to find the part for me when I emailed him about it. Talk about going above and beyond. TDP is the ONLY place to go. read more
