Since many of us are using LS engines and 6 speeds I wanted to put out a warning to stay away from the company Six Speeds inc.
I bought and paid for a complete 6 speed from them and have not received it yet . I bought this in 07 and requested my money back since the problem . I was always put off and told they would send it in a few weeks.
To this day I still have nothing. I was told that a check was sent 1 month ago and still have not recieved it. I spoke to them by text messages since that is the only way to talk to them now and was told to contact her attorney.
Anyway please spread this info to steer clear from the company .
There is a 13 page thread on LS1 tech of people the have screwed. It appears they built the fastest NA 6 speed LS engine 02 camaro race car with all of our money .

I need to find the thread on tech so I can add my $0.02 to them. I was screwed twice. Once was on a planned dyno tune day we were going to fly in their tuner.

I had a problem with them when I bought my 6-speed also.
They said turn around was 3 weeks. I took me 6 months of harassment for me to get the tranny. I made post on LS1tech about the problem. I'm sure my posts would come up in a search.
I feel sorry for you though cause thats along time.

You may try the BBB (Better bussiness bureau). When you get them on the case they can change the attitude of them REAL quick. I had a similar situation happen to me, anyway it was resolved immediately after I called them. It worked for me. Good luck!:thumbsup:
That sucks.....Scumbags.
$2K is no joke, if you have all records for dealing with them, I would get in touch with a lawyer.
Or
Road Trip.
How did you pay for this? Credit or Check?
You know what Jason make sure you pursue this to the fullest! We just had this same thing with a local buisness here. This guys attitude was let them sue me,what are they going to spend $10.000 to get $1800.00. Well what he did'nt figure was he screwed so many people for a little over $65.000,these people including me pooled our money together and hired a lawyer. He also did'nt know that after $50.000 the charges become a little more sirious! To make a long story short this joker was forced to sell his toys(and he had alot) to pay us back ! He did'nt have to many choices. Have some fun in the big house or pay all this money back by the next court date! The judge would'nt even give him a judgement which he wanted because if the judge would of awarded us a judgement, then it would have been up to use to collect the judgement (YOU WIN BUT HE CAN PAY HOWEVER HE WANTS,SO IF HE PAYS EVERYONE A DOLLAR A MONTH HE'S MAKING GOOD ON HIS PROMISE TO PAY)so the judge threw everything at this jerkoff!!! See how many people this guy screwed and go from there . If this guy is out of your state it can get real interesting. This is how these people think now! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO HIRE A LAWYER SPEND $100.00 TO GET $5.00 YEA ALL 25 OF US !!!!!!!!!

It seems that you are 1 lucky out of 100s that weren't lucky. After reading the posts over at ls1tech it seems that they have had bad wraps for a long time. All the way back to when they were employees with More Performance.
I feel for anyone getting burned, but once a thief always a thief. Im surprised that that many people went with Six Speed Inc. knowing there past background.
I did notice that Joe is now posting as ls1joe and exepting PMs.

If there is any chance that anyone doing business with them paid with a Postal Money Order, then it's mail fraud. That's a felony if it's $1.00 and someone got ripped off.

In the original post where it says fastest naturally aspirated LS1 Camaro, I imeadiately thought of the two brothers that raced each other on Pinks. One red 4th gen Camaro, Blue 67 or 68 Firebird, both stick cars. Same LS1 camaro, business owners?
