Default Would you keep the level 4 or...

My girlfriend has a RPM level four 4L60E that has worked flawlessly behind her 346, H/C, Z/28 that is now is getting a 427. So, should she sell it and upgrade, or take the chance that it will hold for awhile?
It will mostly be street driven with occasional strip use.
TIA

If its in there and working, You already have a built unit , Check the fluid and filter if all is clear keep using it and if not send it back for a refresh I am sure they offer something like that.

If it sees limited track use and the Lvl 4 in it is not broke, then drop the pan and take a look at it, put some fresh fluid in and a new filter and let it rip. I bet it holds for a long time behind the 427.
