Default best performance trans for 700-800hp turbo zo6

Just wondering what the best aftermarket t56 for a dd c5 zo6 turbo car with 700-800hp.I go to the drag strip very often. Also im on a budget so im looking for something under $3000 if possible. I really wanna try and get the transzilla t56 magnum but its expensive. i would love to hear what everyone else is running in there high hp turbo/supercharged cars and what you guys paid for them.

C5 Z06 cases flex and break with big power and traction..... For reliability it won't be cheap.

'08+ Z06 TR6060 and matching rear diff would be the wise upgrade. Otherwise you will be rebuilding the C5 T56 a lot and/or replacing it from grenading.

I agree with him honestly^ If you could spend more than I would tell you to go with a T-56 Magnum.

There is a TR6060 Z06 trans for sale shipped at $1850 on corvetteforum.com
Jump on it.

It also requires the '08+ style diff and a couple other items.

Would require c6z diff/rear too since input shaft splines are different.
