4L80E How much power will it hold?
I have found a few people have done this but will it be reliable enough for my car? Im considering on doing this but would like to get more input on it. Cost looks like about $3500 unless someone knows cheaper? I broke my 4th gear at the track and not sure if I should try an auto this time or not?

The Drivetrain guys might have more info and suggestions.

About 80% of the parts in the 4L80E are the same as a TH400. There are weak spots in both but it can easily be beefed up. The 4L80E will also need a computer to shift since it's an electronic valve body.

You can get their Terminator II TH400 with the upgraded drum and sleeve kit that will hold 1000 Hp (according to them) and get the gear vendors and be at about the same cost and you won't be guessing if it will last.

Check with these guys:
http://www.transmissioncenter.net/4L80E.htm
Scroll down and read about it. They claim to stand up to 900+hp.
I bought my 4L80E there and have been pretty happy with it. I'm not anywhere close to 1000hp however.
