another what transmission? LOL Have done some research but still on the the fence on this one. I am considering a 4l80e lv 2 from Jakes Perf. or a 4l70e lv6 from FLT for my 69 Camaro. Both have rock solid reputations from what I see. Plans for power is a roughly 500hp LS3 and running a 3.73 gear. I know the 4l80 weighs a bit more but not sure how much that will affect me with a street only car??Also, I am wondering which would be the easier install and live the longest?? I hope to only do this once. Any oppinions appreciated.

A 4L80e will be a little overkill for your application. A 4L70e will be easier to install because of its physically smaller size. As a street car only, at 500hp both the 4L80e and 4L70e will have a very long and happy life.

At 500 HP a well built 4L60/70 should work well for you. You can't go wrong with the guys at RPM for that unit. If you think you might get the go faster bug in the future, a 4L80E might be worth considering.
