Bowtie Overdrives gone?
Do any of you know if Bowtie went under or if just the website is down? I tried to go to their main site, the 700r4, and the 2004r sites they are all down. Any ideas?
Cheers, |

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
I was on there site reading some just a few days ago... wondering if maybe the server is down. You could always give them a ring.

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
I was on the phone with them the other day, they seemed wide open. They make a PHENOMENAL product in the TV made EZ. I put it on my 700r in my 71, it runs like a totally different truck.
I sure hope it's a website issue! |

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
I sent them an email a couple of days ago, when the site was visible, and never got an answer.

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
They don't answer email, call and leave a message. I did 3 times before i got someone to call me back, great products though.

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
I installed a 700r4 and have not cranked it up yet. TV made easy cables as well. Any advise you can offer to a first timer?

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
Just got off the phone with Chris at BTO... They are open for business. The website is screwed up and is being fixed ASAP. They are manning the phones and answered on the first 5 rings (760-947-5240)...
Good news for those running or interested in BTO's products.

Keep an eye on your pressures and follow the instructions to the letter during testing and adjustment...

Re: Bowtie Overdrives gone?
Great to hear they are still around. I am coming to the Pomona Swap meet in April and am maybe bringing back a 700R4 from them for Ole Pinky.
