That is a link to the ebay auction for the one I was talking about. Price seemed too good to be true for a trans with converter that would stand up to 700 hp. Don't worry, I'm not ready to click the "buy it now", I'm just shopping around at this point. Is he listing the right parts and it is just a question of whether they are actually in there or not, or his parts list missing something? Or is he using not good parts?


The guy from the ebay advertisement (Lou) called me this morning to talk about my application, as soon as he heard it, he turned tail and ran on going the 700R4 route, he instead thinks I should upgrade to the 4l80e, which is basically a th400 with an overdrive...... its the 3rd transmission speciality company that turned tail and ran with my application. Most want me to go to a th350 or th400 if I can live without the OD.... but I'm not geared or set-up for that right now and have no intention of changing anything else right now. What scares them is the several hundred passes per year of racing.

If you notice, on that ebay ad, they say on their website, (700 hp with radials).... in otherwords, if you don't hook it up, you'll be fine.
