Quick question guys.

Planning on doing alot of mods when I return from Afghan. Looking at doing a 228r cam package from texas speed. Hoping for around high 3xx to low 4xx at the wheels. I'm not too worried about the 10 bolt being as the car is an a4. The stock 4l60e has my a little worried though. Going to be running a yank ss3600 stall. Plan on slapping a B&M 70274 cooler on to negate heat caused by the convertor. Do you guys think my trans will be alright? The car is my daily driver. Probably will see the strip once every 2 months at the most. Other than that just spirited street driving.

I appreciate the help in advance!

My stock trans has held up pretty well for me. I've got a 3800-4000 stall from circle d and a b&m trans cooler. Only worried now due to the nitrous

People **** on 4L60s but mine is holding up fine behind my 383 and before that it was in a Heads, Cam, 100 shot LS1 going 7.05s in the 1/8th mile for about 300 track passes and 100k miles. I converted mine from a 6spd so I only have an aftermarket cooler, runs nice and cool at 150-180 degrees and my sensor is in the pressure port so it reads higher than the pan temp actually is. Id say run it till it blows, parts are pretty damn cheap for them anyway. I spent about $350 on a Borg Warner rebuild kit, sonnax sun shell, 29 element sprags, vette servo, boost pump and sleeved input drum, most of the upgrades that the sponsers do in there upgraded 60e's just to have on hand in case it does blow.
