I beleive he already has a built 4l60e (level 5)... Th400 is awesome.... and you can always put a gear vender in, that would be best of both worlds.

he has a stock tranny not a built one

He told me different at a car show in Canton than... oh well... still th400 would be great with a gear vender.

it is not a stock tranny. It is a stage 4 RPM transmission. I was told it was good for 700hp. I guess they meant flywheel and no to the tire. There is no manufacturer that build's a 4l60e that will hold up to the power that I will be making. Keep in mind I am only at 12lbs. of boost. I want to go to 20lbs.no 4l60e will hold that power.RPM recommended I go with the TH400,but I have changed my mind! i am going with a 6 speed instead. With a 6 speed it will make even more power and i will have more fun with it.It is a Viper spec 6 speed also,so it will hold the power.

Sorry for some reason I thought it was stock my bad. You can always go to a 4l80 and it won't break. I don't think you could make enough power even on full boost to tear it up. Just something you should think about.

I thought about that,but to be honest i am just tired of the automatic's in general. I have already run over a tranny cooler and 2 converter's,I am ready for a change.Maybe whenever my wife let's me make a full blown race car,i will go back to an auto,but not wright know.

Chri,Chris,Chris......

Doesn't necessarily mean it's a race car w/a TH400.... Even my stalled/braked RMVB'd lock up TH400 can be as tame as it "needs" to be on the skreet. Just lift a touch and it's a nice smooth shift.

Hell, the TH400 is the least of my streetabilty issues.

Also..... I don't care what Viper spec the M6 is built to, it's gonna need attention sooner or later. Start saving for that big coin rebuild now-

Uhhh..... and any clutch you'll NEED to hold your kind of power will be less than.... uhhh delightful on the street.(Can you say chchchchattttter?)
800rwhp + lsx style clutch + lsx style hydrlolics =
Ask me how I know-

Not to mention....
you'll be more consistant
you'll ET better (Phuck mph. I'd rather have ET and ol' boys money )
you still get to(have to)shift manually
not as hard on parts at launch
costs MUCH less to rebuild when the time comes ($400.00 vs. $1500.00)
and NOTHING sounds better than a cammed/whistling stalled hot rod

Far be it from me to try to sway you though
