Default stock 6l80 and tranfercase limits

im in the market for a heavy duty transfercase and transmission. originally i was going to use a th400 with a 205 transfercase. but i came across a 6l80 with its transfercase. so my question is what are the limits of a STOCK 6l80 transmission and transfercase????? im building a ls3 stroker so im imagining around 650 tq more or less. it is going to be for my sand truck.

I think you would get more feedback in a 4x4 forum, or at least in the transmission part of
a forum.

Since this has nothing to do with engine internals, I agree. Moving to a more appropriate section.

Not familiar with the tcase but on sand where there is no dead hook type grip id say the trans, (properly tuned of course) will be fine.
