Don't underestimate the 4l60e. Everyone thinks they are weak. Well they are in stock form, just like every other stock trans. Guys worship the 4l80, its weak as well. But I have seen many 60e's hold really big power when built right. Contact Ryan or Frank at Performabuilt, who sponsor this page. Even the late, great Frank Cahill would laugh at all those doubting the 60e.
As for your question...not sure. I know when its locked on a dyno it has a tendency to break the converter.

@FTI Converters
Dalton is probably going to recommend against locking a single disc at WOT in the 1/4
A triple disc is a safer bet
Is it physically possible to lock a single...sure. Just be prepared to wear it out pretty quickly
