Default Power limits of Performabuilts 4L65E lvl 3??

so im curious on personal experiences with the lvl 3 4L65E performabuilt, i have it and am planning on doing 8xxrwhp and equal rwtq by the end of spring and just want to know how reliable it will be cause it is a streetcar and goes for long distance cruises... thanks for any opinions/info guys.

Youd be living on borrowed time with just about ANY 4L60e, with 800/800. The Strongest 60e I can think of is RPM Transmissions Level VII, but I think youd be better off stepping it up to an 80e.

im eventually as needed going to stepup to the 80E but the performabuilt is only about a year old since its been in the car, i know on their website they advertise the capabilities at 800rwhp but does anyone actually have one that they're putting 700+ through and how has it been holding up? or if the company can chime in and tell me any real life examples that would be helpful...

I would suggest selling the 4l65E before you break it. If you were closer I know I would be interested; perhaps someone else here is close and interested. Then get a well build 4l80E and be done with it.
