coan this what i have use and what my customers use . the 400.i would use a vasco jet input and a coan supper sprag and run a steel stator tq converter and run a screen type trans filter. find one and use it .this will keep the clutches from burning up. use a deep alum trans pan. the red clutches work good . i run a manual body. the supper sprag and the input may be over kill .BUT i have broken the HD gm sprag. so if you have some money buy the best and be done with it. a trans built this way will take alot of power . this what i have in my GTOLast edited by pat mccarthy; 01-28-2007 at 03:26 PM.
