How much power can the stock drive train handle?
How much power can I have and still use the stock tranny and rear end without them breaking? I'm just wanting to know so that I don't have any large repair bills in the future. The car is an 87 IROC with 700-R4 auto box.

I think it's 450Lbs. of torque for a 700R4
