Kevin is known for building some of the strongest, best performing transmissions!! He has been involved in automotive racing and high performance since he was a small kid when his dad raced dirt track!! He tells the story of coming home everyday from school and working on the race car with his dad! But the automatic transmission class at Tulsa Technical is what put him on this path. He wanted to learn to build/repair automatic transmissions for himself so he took a 10 week course but about halfway through the course, someone dropped off a Turbo350 transmission for him to rebuild and it was all down hill from there.
Hensley's Transmission started as a part time business in his basement, and when the insurance company wouldn't insure the business at his home, he rented a spot and got to work! He talks about how anxious that move was to leave a regular job and do strike out on your own.
I hope you enjoy this listen as much as I enjoyed recording it!! Kevin will be back for another podcast in the future as we have just scratched the surface for his knowledge and stories!!
