Good 700r4 rebuild kit? Manual valve body?

What is a good rebuild kit for the 700r4? I dont want to expensive but I dont was junk, something to hold a very rough driver and 350rwhp
Also are there any manual valve bodys out there for the 700r4's?

700s aren't good performance transmissions the gear ratios aren't optimum for racing and they just don't hold up well in high HP applications you would be better off with a TH-350 or 400 conversion in a car that is to be driven "rough" the 700 is more for mileage with the O/D and low 1st gear ..

Go to http://www.700r4l60e.com/store/custo...&cat=19&page=1 this should do what you want. What torque converter are you planning on using?

350whp is pretty mild compared to what some ppl are running on 700r4's. i think you'll be fine with a fine rebuild, such as Pro Built. heard nothing but good things from them
