Choosing a Transmission --- Help
I am stuck on trying to select a transmission for my conversion. I have narrowed it down to 3 but I am not sure what is the best for what I need to get out of my car. (TH700R4, 4L60E, T56)
Right now my 1992 Camaro has a 305TBI, TH700R4(4L60), and 10-Bolt rear with 3.73 gears.
The car will be received an LS1 down the road so the transmission has to work well with that motor.
The problem I have right now is that at 90mph the car is running about 4200rpm. This is not acceptable for a daily driver. I am not sure of the gearing in the transmission right now.
What will give me the performance and a decent cruise rpm? I really need detailed information because this area is confusing me. Thanks!

There is a slim chance of a SuperCharger.
As with the motor down the road, the car will be driven less.

Another vote for Rock-On! I have his vacuum modulated stage4 4L60E with the #'s in my sig. Never a problem.
Dave's customer service/quality is second to none!

Do you have that website? I tried to look them up for a website but could not find one. I talked to Dave this morning and he sounds like a great guy. Looks like I will be going with him when I get ready for my tranny.
