rebuilding 700 r4 what clutches

here is my list of goodies for my 700 r4 rebuild

700R4 .500" Diameter T.V. Boost Valve & Sleeve 1981-ON.

700R4, 4L60E Thrust Washer Kit.

I have Lined Up Clutches From Largest To Smallest. Going From Left To Right I Know That The Middle Set Is 3-4 Clutch Pack & The Absolute Last Ones Are The Overrun Clutches. Can Anyone help Me Identify The Rest? Another Question, Are There Better Clutches Than The Ones I Have Pictured?

Well i guess they are no better clutches for the other "gears". Well other than the 3rd clutch pack and 2nd 2-5/8" Red Alto Band.

the fourth clutch pack sucks ***. there has got to be something better especially since i want to go WOT in 4th gear.


Please Help!!!!

The 3-4 clutches are "on" when you go to 4th gear. The 2-4 band is coming on to make the 4th gear shift. The Trans-Go Junior is not enough as it is. I can help you out on this, just give me a call after 11am PST at 800 7763288.
