Difference v8 and v6 700r4

Hello
so i build a v6 racing engine and i need to reinforce the standard automatic transmission
so i know that the bolt pattern , torque converter and speed governor are different on the v8s but what is with the internals steel and friction disks bearings and everything else ? are they the same and as strong as the v8 ones ?
are there some good aftermarket reinforced part kits ?
thanks

The band servo for 2nd is smaller for less holding power. Generally the clutch packs have fewer clutches.
