Sure do appreciate the advise, now I have to go study up on these 700R-4 trannies to see what I need for goodies in it, LOL: [/QUOTE]

I would look at getting some heavy duty clutch packs and a light shifter kit, pull up some corvette TH 700 codes and specs and compare them to your trannies code and specs, I know that some of the high output corvettes had heavy duty parts in the trans.
