What transmission to buy?? Ls3 with F1r pro charger
I have a 69 Camaro that I am making a pro touring car. I have already purchased a ls3 and a F1r pro charger that will be pushing 8-10lbs max on the motor. I need a transmission!!! What should I go with? I really want a six speed automatic.. Any help/advice would be appreciated.
I already know the blower is over kill for the motor and can push 20lb of boost but it was purchased a couple years ago so I figure It would do the job
Transmission needs to be rated at 800rwhp. I am ready to purchase a transmission and get this baby on the road!! I have heard the new 6l90e is good but won't hold up to the Hp. A 6l80 is great but big. 700r4 is good when built. It's driving me crazy trying to figure out what I should purchase..

With that much power you don't need 6 speeds.
A 4L80E seems like an obvious choice; they are not overly difficult to fit into a '69 Camaro.
Jake is not only the 4L80E expert, he is very active on the NastyZ28 forum (1st and 2nd Gen Camaro) and therefore knows these cars well too.
