I bought Jakes stage 2 rebuild kit for the 80e. I ended up buying the billet input and billet direct hub which makes it a stage 3 setup once I finally turned it up

On just the stage 2 setup I was 500whpish. 2600lb car was running 133mph
Boosted with the same stage 2 setup and billet input/billet hub im near 1100whp in a 2750lb car. Car has ran 167.6mph
You just have to make sure you follow the instructions and perform basic internal mods, very similar to a th400

It's all about dual feeding the direct clutches. The shift kits do it with new gaskets and plates, pros and cons of both. Research it a bit. I prefer the internal way
The 80e mechanically is on the same page as a th400 and a lot of the parts swap, upgrade, same internal mods are followed
Lots of great threads on the net. Google dual feeding 4l80e
