A 4l80e is the only way to go. We have a few high hp trucks and cars running this set up.Parish8 is one of them. Give us a call if you have any questions. Thank you, Vince.

for racing, a TH400 is the best bet.

Personaly I think a 2.10 geared turbo 400 or a aftermarket cased glide with 1.80 straight cuts is the way to go with that type of power. You need something strong enough to be reliable with that type of power and not too much 1st gear ratio.
