Default opel GT, 4l60 or 80?

I am getting ready to start a turbo ls1 swap into a 69 opel GT, looking to make 700 rwhp max. Car weighed 1900 pounds with a SBC/glide combo. With a heavier car the 80 would be the obvious place to start but with such a light car will a properly built 60 cut it for a pure street car with occasional highway pulls? thanks.

I'm not a huge fan of a 4L60E but I think your combo is a candidate for one, as long as it is built well.
