I recently got a 727 built by CRT. I stopped by the shop and paid and picked it up in person - this was part of the deal.He told me that he wasnt doing builds where he had to ship them- and also people could drop off their cores. Anyway, he had 1 very young employee working in the shop - not sure if the young guy is doing the full builds or not. I hope my new trans works good - it looks like it was done right. I should be testing it here in the next week or two. My previous 727 build from CRT is still going strong in my 340 dart 20 years later.
