How can you make a 700R4 stand up to really hard driving? I've heard they aren't the toughest transmission.

1986 Camaro
Carbureted 305
700R4

 

You might try going to www.700r4.com and emailing one of techs there.Hope that helps.

Edelbrock Performer Rpm Heads/Intake/Cam
Flowtech Ceramic Headers
Crane Roller tip Rockers/pushrods
Flowmaster Muffler

 

Besides getting an aftermarket tranny, after 1989 (I believe), they added some better pumps and stuff to the 700R4. Corvette servo and shift kit (though some don't like them...) will help. Tranny coolers are a good thing to add no matter what.
