hey guy im new at this racing building stuff and im getting a motor built by Kotzu racing head in San Antonio, tx. My question is the motor is going to come out putting out 500hp +, i got a stock 700r4 with sift kit, but i know thats not going to last so im just going to use that just to start up the motor and MAYBE cruz it and baby it. What time of transmssions out there are able to handle 500+ hp, I was think TCi streetfighter but thats rated at 450, any ideas will be great, thanks guys.

Dana knows his stuff....

 

a built 4L60E would take that. I know a guy with a '95 TA that makes near 700 rwhp.

 

A Tremec TKO could handle that, or a T56 on a fresh rebuild. TH350 or TH400 will work good too, you'd never have a problem wirh them if they are built correctly. 4L60E will work as well or a Pro-built 700R4 (Dana really does know his stuff and he specializes in 700r4's).

 

big question is what does the car weigh and what kind of racing?

 

my car is a 91 z28 weighing about 3500 and racing will be like maybe get on it when i see a mustang on the road and some at the track not going to get up on it everytime i cruze it.

 

Muncie M22 heavy duty close ratio four speed. But good luck, lol... they are quite rare, and the price says that!!

I think a Turbo 400 is best... if built right, you'll never break it. You could throw it off a bridge onto the highway and it would still work

 

ok so which trans. should i go with out of these from that pro-built web site youll gave me. remember im going to be pushing 500+ but at the rear wheel i duno....Products 700R4 Heavy Duty Transmission $1,355.00

700R4 Road Race Transmission $1,495.00

700R4 Street/Strip Transmission $1,495.00

"Limited" Street 700R4 $1,725.00

4L60E Street/Strip Transmission 1993-1996 $1,695.00

"Limited" Street 4L60E 1993-1996 $1,875.00

 

I'd probably go with the street/strip 700r4.

 

Hey Kfoley thnx for the info man, ill look into that bud. maybe i will post more questions later for you all to help me on because i got some more that i need some advice on, well untill then thanks for everything.

 

You can also give Dana a call at Pro-built and talk to him. I'm sure he would be happy to help you out with a decision, and since he builds them he would know which one would best suit your needs.

Ok so it's $5500 if you're a "jobber" but it's really cool.

 

I want to try those transmissions from fearthemonster.com but i duno who has them, i posted another post asking if anyone knows more about them , ill see what they comeup with. But for that price and can handle up to 675 HP thats perfect for me. Hope i here good news about these transmissions.
