Default Will my trans hold up?

I am planing on building a 355 to put down 370-380rwhp in my 1997 TA; I will also have a edge racing 3200 stall with a true cool trans cooler. My question is will my stock 4l60e hold up to this and are there any other simple mods I could do to the trans to keep it from failing?

Will last for a while depending how you drive and how much you beat on the car. My best,advice,is start saving cash because it will blow up sooner then later unless you dont ever give it gas. Also depends how many miles are on it now.

it should hold! i have an stock 4l60E pushing 600hp on the bottle for the pass 7 month over 20+ 1/4 runs on the street on full slicks goodyear 28x11.5 and no problems at all! i think the nitrous window switch and the 3.42 gear is what is savingit!
