700r-4 info needed

I am just wondering what some of you guys think should be done to a 700-R4 Tranny to hold up to 500hp converter/internals whatever. Also I have the 10 bolt 7.5 rearend what should i add to beef it up as well i am going with a 4.11 gear and a mini-spool. Thanks in advanced. I would really love to get a 12-bolt but i'm not exactly the richest man so i will ride around on a upgrade 10 bolt until it decides to take a **** on me. I was looking at this rear-end cover. Seen it at thunder racing for $154.99.

I carry complete Street/Strip rebuild kits, and Street/Strip 700R4's built to match the car & driver. For 9.5" torque converters I use A.C.T. & Vigilante. What are you looking for exactly?

Well the motor is making on the verge of 500hp at the flywheel so i am looking to have a tranny that will hold up to that and it's not a daily driver so no worries about that just maybe like a 3500 stall let me know what you can do and how much. Keep in mind this for the car below.

Is this a "limited street" application? Are you planning on using nitrous? What is the duration of the camshaft at .050 lift?, and what type of cam? Any head work? What is the intake setup?

Well this car will rarely see the street just for like car shows and the such. The cam is a solid flat tappet 234 duration at .050. Yes will be on the car but not anytime soon and not before I get a 12 bolt rear-end that's for sure. The heads are cast iron pro topline 2.08/1.60's flowed 334 on the bench. The intake is a single plane high rise proform intake. let me know what else you need to know. thanks I don't check this board alot if you want to email you will get a faster response and we can get something setup possibly. thanks Kyle Email: imatrickha@yahoo.com
