Default Level 5 4L80 power levels...

I just purchased a Procharger F1R last week and will be using a LS2 402 along with it. I'm shooting for around 900RWHP possibly a little more and am looking for 9's through the quarter. I was originally going to go with a Th400 but am not liking not having overdrive...

So I am looking for either FLT or Performabuilt to respond here and chime in on if either company has a 4L80 that can hold up to that or if I'll need to be looking into a different trans...

Thanks guys!

About 40 lbs difference without converters. Aftermarket converter weight would be similar.
