Well i was thinking of rebuilding my stock 11k 4l60-E fully built but i dont know if it will hold up with my turbo set-up with 13-18lbs. of boost only sumtimes not all the time just onece in a whille i go to the track. But i dont know if i should go with a 4l80 the damm converter is 1k... damm i was also thinking of putting a Rosler Trans-brake to my built 4l60. What do you all think will the 4l60 hold around 600-700hp.

A 60e in a f-body is on the edge with that much power. If it is for the truck in your sig, don't waste your time with a 60 get an 80e and you won't have to worry about the tranny.
