I don't know, I would at least ask Shep what went wrong... As a transmission performance business, I am sure that they would like to know. It is not everyday that something like that happens. That way they can prevent whatever went wrong. That looks like it needed a scatter shield

It is supposed to take the HP. 3 years and only 15,000 miles isn't that much.
That is if you weren't beating on it and grinding every gear. But it sounds like you wanted a good reliable trans
